The relationship between parents and children, but especially between mothers and daughters, is tremendously powerful, scarcely to be comprehended in any rational way.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
We all work hard to understand the dynamic relationship we have with a parent.
The mother-daughter relationship is the most complex.
The relation between parents and children is essentially based on teaching.
Where the daughter sees power, the mother feels powerless. Daughters and mothers, I found, both overestimate the other's power - and underestimate their own.
I think seeing the love between a mother and child is something we can all really relate to. You can remember it from your own childhood perspective.
When you have children, your perspective on the parent-child relationship alters.
I am an only child, so I relate to the intensity of that single-parent, mother-daughter relationship.
The influence of one's parents is powerful and permanent.
The mother-child relationship is paradoxical and, in a sense, tragic. It requires the most intense love on the mother's side, yet this very love must help the child grow away from the mother, and to become fully independent.
What can be more clear and sound in explanation, than the love of a parent to his child?
