[quote=Anonymous]Nope nope nope. I'm 35 and my mom is 70. She's always been hyper critical, which meant I could never confide in her when I was a kid. As an adult, I still can't talk to her about non-trivial things because I don't want a lecture about how everything I do is wrong. She definitely still sees me as a child and feels the need to "parent" me. After my daughter was born, we had serious argument during which I told her that I was in therapy because of her and she finally admitted that "maybe" she was too critical. We're trying to repair our relationship but I don't think we will ever be friends because she can't see me as an adult. I'll always be a child to her and I think in order for us to be friends that dynamic would have to change and it's not going to happen. [/quote]
