Mad

Narcisist.

Love ❤️

Also glad I'm not the only one.

(Absolutely stone freezing) cold (delusional, far too busy doing nothing, unempathetic, hard as nails but good at convincing dad she is a delicate flower, should not have the title 'mother')
Sorry too many words

Wonderful.

Sad.

Caring

Dead

Gone :(

Critical

Destructive.

Traumatised

Stunted

Uncomfortable

Aggressive

It makes me feel so much better to see so many negative words on this thread. I have a terrible relationship with my mother and sometimes it feels like everyone around me has a great relationship with their mother except me.

I feel the opposite. How hard it was to be pregnant and taking care of young children and waking up several times a night for young babies? All for your child years later to sum you up with a negative word. Ungrateful for the majority of people with negative words (there will be a small percentage of exceptions).

Cold (stone cold if I can have two)

How can you say those who have put negative words are ungrateful without knowing why? Being a mother is more than giving birth and getting up in the night. Are you seriously saying they are ungrateful?

@Jvg33 what planet are you on?
If the mothers described had been half decent people wouldn't be describing them negatively

Evil

Yes, the majority will be ungrateful. There will be a very small percentage who will be the exception. Have you raised children yourself? It's hard work and no one is perfect.

Dead.
