Relationships between an adult daughter and mother do not always develop well and are trusting. Very often close people find it difficult to find common ground and they become strangers. What if the relationship between a mother and an adult daughter is not developing in the best way?
1. Even if weekdays are filled with household chores and work, it is still worth calling the mother twice a week, showing interest in her health and business.
2. Conflicts with mothers often arise when on a day off the mother wants her daughter to come, but she has other plans. In this case, you should not take a tough stance. You can offer such a solution to the problem - go about your business on some weekend, and visit mom on others.
3. You should not complain to your mother about your husband, even if he behaves or behaved inappropriately towards his wife, and even more so ask your mother to intervene in case of a conflict with her husband.
4. If a mother loves her grandchildren, wants to help with them and her health condition allows her, then there is no need to rush to refuse her help. It is much better to leave grandchildren with a grandmother who loves them than with a stranger who needs to pay for the service.
5. If a mother cannot look after her grandchildren, then you should not insist on your own and enter into a conflict about this.
6. You can often go for a walk around the city together with your mother, visit a cafe, openings, outside the city. In such cases, trusting relationships between people are often developed, and mother and daughter can become friends.
7. If the mother and daughter have a common hobby - handicrafts, reading, growing flowers, then this can also bring closer and make the relationship closer.
8. In the event of a dispute with the mother, do not be rude, even if she was wrong. You need to state your position as calmly as possible, arguing for it. Perhaps mom will side with her daughter after that.
9. If the mother is a widow, then a man may well appear in her life. If communication with a man is not harmful, then you should not criticize the man, even if he did not like him. If the mother's admirer causes concern, it is worth talking to her about him delicately, without raising the tone. It may well be that the fears of an adult daughter are in vain.
