The relationship between a mother and her daughter is the most wonderful and intense of all relationships. Before the daughter reaches the period of adolescence, the relationship between the mother and the daughter is of general warmth and closeness. Though there arise occasional disputes, they resolve apologizing from heart. The daughters in their younger years admire their mothers and also love them very much and they even up confessing that they want to be like their mothers. Problems start creeping in when the daughters start reaching their adolescence. It is the time when the daughters are faced to differentiating themselves and the lovely relationship between the mothers and their daughters turn sour.
It is the freedom which the teenage daughters yearn for but at the same time they fail to take the proper steps and often end up having disputes with their problems. The teenage daughters suddenly feel that their mothers are interfering too much in their lives and want autonomy in their lives. The mothers also all of a sudden become over-protective about their teenage daughters. It so happens that when the daughters urge for some independence in their lives, their mothers try to stick to them. Mothers need to be more careful handling their teenage daughters, the daughters on the other hand must keep in their mind that the age which they are going through, their mothers have already gone through that years back. This is one stage of life where the mothers should try to be friends with their daughters so that the daughters can share everything going in their lives.
