[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Perhaps it's just me, but I'm glad I didn't have a girl. I never had a close relationship with my mom. She is a great person, but our personalities are so different that the mother/daughter relationships talked about on this thread just weren't a reality for us. [b] I know she has always been disappointed by that because she had a fantastic relationship with her own mom, and not having such a relationship with me, especially when it seems like every other mom has a great relationship with her daughter, just made her, and me feel bad.[/b] As there is no such expectation for the mother/son relationship, I don't have to feel the pressure and disappointment she felt if things turned out the same way for me.[/quote] Yeah, I think these grand parental expectations for perfect mother-daughter relationships are unfair and setting some kids up to feel really inadequate. Sorry you experienced that. [/quote]
