How do you tell your mother that you feel you're getting... old? If I'm... old, then what is she?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A woman who tells her age tells everything, and I won't tell it.
The older I get the more of my mother I see in myself.
It is hard to tell your mother to change her life.
When my mom turned 91, I wanted to use the time that we have left in our lives to get to know each other as adults.
The relationship you have with your mother is like nothing else. They do kind of know everything about you, even though they don't confront it. That is often a dynamic from childhood onwards. As a teenager, you want to be independent and do slightly furtive things.
As you know, all women at all ages do not feel their ages anymore. The young girl feels older, and the older woman feels younger.
My mother gave lots of good advice and had a lot to say. As you get older, you realize everything she said was true.
I feel bad that I never discussed my mother's life and times as a career woman with her.
The thing about having a very young mother who had you at 20 is that you expect that you're going to be old ladies together.
I'm not bothered by the idea of getting old, or I guess you could say by having arrived at old. I was 10 when my mom turned 55. For 1955, she was a very old mom.
