[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does a healthy relationship with one's mom look like? Does anyone have that?[/quote] Of course. I call my mom every day, she is my go to person - for advice, comfort. She isn’t afraid to tell me what she thinks, but only when I ask. She is a great listener and I respect her judgment tremendously. She knows when I disagree with her on something, and doesn’t push back once she’s said her peace. And she never says “I told you so.” She wouldn’t give me the silent treatment for a week. If she disagreed about getting a dog, she would say “have you thought about X” (X being her concern about the dog - say the breed, or whether I have time to train it, whatever) and we would discuss it. And then she would drop the discussion and trust me to handle X.[/quote]
