I Am a Mother

Put my daughter in timeout today and she screamed that she hated me. First time she’s ever told me that she hated me & my hearts broken. I now know how my mom felt when I told her the same thing as a child and teenager and I so freakin wish I could take it back now.

Well, tough love is part of being a good mom. Your the mom not a friend who will enable her to continue improper behavior.
Be proud of the fact that motherhood is a responsibility.

@Brittani Yep ma'am! motherhood is maybe the toughest job in the world. But it also has the best rewards, when they snuggle up, smile at you, and eventually realize how much you love them and how much they love you.
