Hilary Truong is a therapist who specializes in the Mother–Daughter Relationship. You may not want to hear all of what she says but perhaps that’s a control issue (my words, not hers) – no one ever suggested parenting was easy and there is no “one-size-fits-all” method for the generations to figure it out.
At any age, we need to remember that the mother is the mother and her daughter is the daughter and not allow those lines to blur. If you’re an older woman trying to heal a lifetime with a mother who wasn’t perhaps you wanted or needed her to be, it is, as in so many relationships, about the story… often a story that go back generations.
Hilary also has insights into the over-protective (overbearing?) father.
Mothers, did you know listening is a huge part of the equation?
