[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this will be my future.

I intuitively know how to parent one of my kids but am often stymied by the other.

FWIW, I'd give my own mom a C or even D for her parenting, but we had a deep, deep love for each other. It's good that your daughter could say to you that she's hurt about something. That's a first step toward healing. [/quote]

it's odd because my daughters are identical twins.

My husband had angry outbursts for sure. [/quote]

She may have needed you to get your man in line. [/quote]

she absolutely did. Due to my own issues, I did not. I deeply regret that. [/quote]

You can tell her that. You did the best you could at the time. You see now that one of your daughters needed...more. The fact you even care to know how they feel about your parenting speaks volumes about your character and love for them. Life is long and you have time to understand her perspective and she should be able to understand yours.[/quote]
