Parents – They’re probably the people we can’t live without (not your boyfriends if you have one but our parents!). Life without them would be nothing but a catastrophe. They are the kindest and most amazing people we could ever find in this cruel world. They made great sacrifices and protected us day by day. They never turned us down and they would give their life for us.
Our sweet and lovely parents are the most precious gift that we’ve ever received from God, they have given us so much but they never asked for something in return. All they ever want is for us to be happy, safe and sound. And I bet you also want the same thing for them. You may not be the perfect daughter but there are many ways you can do to be a better one. Read these tips on how to be a better daughter to your mom and dad to get started.
1. Talk to them.
Upset or feeling better, it doesn’t matter. Talk to them or call them if you are away. Ask them if they are doing well or tell them your problems if you ever have one. And if you think that it’s not a serious matter, let them know that you are brave enough to handle it on your own. Sometimes listening to your voice is all they need to not worry. Let them know that you are doing just fine and you’re always there for them just like how they are always there for you.
2. Be responsible.
Help around the house. Help them do the chores and take extra responsibilities as well. If you have siblings take care of them and help them with their homework. Ask them if there is something you can do for them. Your parents would surely appreciate the extra help.
3. Respect their decision.
You may sometimes not agree with what they are saying but remind yourself that they are your parents, they know you by heart. They don’t want you to live a life full of regrets. You are a precious gift to them, they want you to live a healthy and happy life just like how they felt when you were born. Just trust them, they have seen life more than you have and they only want what’s best for you.
4. Be honest.
Be open to them. Don’t keep secrets. If you have done something wrong, tell them. Lying to your parents would mean you don’t trust them enough with your problems. Whatever it is that you are going through or whatever it is that you have done, they will always understand. They are your parents and out of all the people in the world, they will be the first to forgive and help.
5. Remember birthdays or anniversaries.
It means a lot to parents when their daughter remembers anniversaries or birthdays. Give or make them gifts. It doesn’t need to be expensive, it just has to be from your heart. Giving gifts show love and thoughtfulness. They may not be vocal about it sometimes but it warms their hearts. After all, it’s the little things that matter.
6. Be true to yourself.
You have the power to live your life so don’t be afraid to show who you really are. You are your parents’ daughter so yes, they will accept and support you. Show your parents that they had raised an amazing self-spirited woman. Looking at how confident, learning and happy you are would make them feel contented. Nothing makes a parent prouder than seeing their child achieve their dream and become successful.
7. Show your love to them.
Say powerful words from time to time. It completes them. Tell them “I love you” and then give them a hug or a kiss. Simple as that. Little things like that could make them feel thankful to have you as their daughter. As the song goes, “you are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are grey.” Be their sunshine! Make them feel loved every single day. Show how blessed you are to have them as your parents.
Those who are lucky enough to still have their parents by their side, don’t wait until they’re gone and live with regrets. Cherish every moment with them. Show how blessed you are for having them in your life. Love your parents unconditionally. Be happy and that would make them twice happier. Be the best daughter you could be.

um i don’t spend time with my mom she says i’m mean to her and today she was making faces at me and then i turned my head at laughed and she said she’s tell my dad about me because i’m so bad of a daughter that i make her cry a lot but u do love her and i didn’t know she felt like that i wanna be better like really better to her i wanna give her the world and make her feel like she is loved be me and by my whole heart she really does a lot and i repay her my talking back and getting an attitude wit her. how can i really be better
I get that feeling except my parents are telling me to gain more weight, make more friends, and they would compare me to other people. But I still love them cause I know they love me. I think that you should stand up for yourself because if you don’t you could end up not being happy like you deserve.
i do everything for her but once i do one thing not perfect its not good enough my brothers can mess up and she makes it seem like its OK they have everything perfect with her me and my dad do not … sometimes she makes me wanna give up.
Love my mom the most cze she’s sweet you know I love her too much 😍😍😘😘
i love her to but sometimes she starts to fight with me and my dad has to talk with her
Hi i always feel like im not good enough for my parents i am always compared to friends and cousins
my mom always tells me “why cant you be like your cousins. have good grads help around the house be responsible” but when i help around they say “why cant you do it right.” i cant even feel conferrable in my own body or house. my dad would tell me why dont you wear dresses skirts shorts why dont you like pink why cant you be like a normal girl why cant you act and dress like one they tell me your sister is more smarter than you shes more skinnier than you she more beautiful than you like come on she 4 yeas old . nothing is ever good enough for them.
your parents cares for you and wants what is best for you that is why they are always comparing so that you could be more like the others . But you could tell your parents when their in a calm mood that your different from the others because comparing you with your cousins and friends makes you feel bad about them and you will start hating them . You don’t have to be like your cousins and friends you just have to be the better you . Try helping them and making them happy . And above all be your self because everyone is different. if one person is good in studies doesn’t mean the person next to him/her should be good at it instead he/she will be good at something else. But it does mean you should quit studying or whatever you cant, just keep trying . Start doing things your self that will show your parents that you are trying to change like trying other ways to study . Think positive like I can do it no matter what the other’s say.
you are unique the way you are and there is only one you . you cant be exactly like your sister but you could keep trying
I feel so useless, it’s like instead of solving the problems, I give it to them instead! I hate it when I use my electronic devices I try my best to isolate myself from it but, I couldn’t stop using it, I couldn’t finish my responsibilities on time making me such a bad older sister, I don’t know what’s happening to me anymore, I couldn’t do anything right. I cry all the time knowing I never ever get what I want because of my lazy attitude. I hope I’ll die sooner.
Don’t say that, you shouldn’t want to die because stupid parents are making you feel bad. You should just respect them and confront it; be more open with your feelings! I have hope for you, and you should to. Good luck!
My mom keeps comparing my to other kids and it makes me feel as if im not good enough for her and that she deserves a better child
Your mothers for you and expects you to be like the other kids that is why she is comparing you with the other kids . I wouldn’t support she comparing you with others because you will start hating the kids which your mom always tells about and which will eventually destroy your friendship with those kids . But you could try being a better you . For example : if your mom wants you to study like the other kids because your not good at studies then you could try studying in other ways like making short notes , highlighting them in different colours which will help you know the important points etc . or you could find more interesting ways in google . She would never think that she would want another child because she cares for you and its true .
Well i hope what i wrote is helpful for you
what do i do if my mom compares me to other kids all day?
I am so in insecure and I wear a mask and I hide my emotions and lie alot. I am drifting further apart and I envy my friends” relationship with their parents. I am a huge disappointment to my mum and dad and I know they prefer my sisters over me. I have alot of bad habits and I am trying to stop but I cant. I just can’t. I am too arrogant and my temper is uncontrollable. I tend to shut people out. ALOT. I feel like I can only trust myself. I can’t tell them all this although I need help. I have considered running away more than once but I live in a tiny country so I know that is impossible. I feel like my world rests on my shoulders. I know that nothing good lasts as my dad once told me that it is perfectly fine if I don’t want to be family and he is fine with kicking me out by the time I turn 18…THE END. END OF STORY. *cries*
OMG!!! I can relate to you completely! I had a bad rep of lying and now I’ve stop but even though I’ve stop my mom still thinks Im lying when I’m not. I’ve contemplated running away before and I even packed a bag, I knew I wasn’t going to do it, but still I was soo angry. I never tell her how I feel, bcuz if I did she wouldn’t listen (at least that is what I tell myself). I mean sometimes we get along perfectly and then a week later everything goes down hill and a lot of times it’s not just my fault she’ds doing something too, but we’re both too ignorant to admit it. One time I got soo mad that I threw my favorite and only tablet, (dumb me) and now it’s broken! My mom is always comparing me to other people and it’s annoying! I mean come on, do they really think that comparing us is going t improve stuff it only makes us insecure!!!
My mom looks at me like a broken toy. I hate it. I want to be a good daughter but it’s hard because all of my siblings are perfect.
hi, I have a problem my mom always compares me to my other firneds when i mess up and says things like “i bet (friend) dosen’t do that!” And that makes me feel as if i’m not good enough and that she deserves a better child
AND so i’m 14 and my mom dose NOT trust me with guys for no reason and my mother and father will make fun of me if im even looking at a guy in public Is it normal for a 14 year old girl to think a guy in public is cute?!
i feel as if my parents dont deserve me as a child
me too. like i made my mom cry yesterday by telling her that she is not that good at painting but one of her paintings is marvelous …i meant it as a compliment. my dad literally gets ready to buy anything i ask for …but i am never able to give them the good grades that they expect. my mom yesterday joked that she could also try being a model but i told no way mom neither do u have the height nor the figure…i regret saying all of these to my parents . i dont want this but i cant control my tongue . my parents are lenient and strict at the same time but then also i cant be a good daughter . i dont know why cant i bring good grades . i am tired of this …everytime anything like this happens i am way too overwhelmed and then i have a breakdown. i dont k why i cant be good enough for them .
My mom dosen’t trust me around any guys i’m 14 and my mom and dad make fun of me even if im looking at one! isnit it normal for a teenage girl to think a guy is good looking??
hi i don’t think anyones gonna see this but
My parents would always compare me to my other better friends and i feel as if im not good enough they deserve a better child
they have no trust in my whatsoever and i dont know how to ear that back
im a foster kid, im with foster parents and i keep making mistakes. ive got in trouble quite a bit and ive not been here very long..im trying to change and im trying to be the kid they want but its hard..because im always trying to fit in with everyone and be normal. tonight my foster mom caught me with puff bars and now she dont know if shes going to keep me and idk what to do because im tired of moving and im tired of always screwing up. i appreciate everything they do for me and i never make them feel like it and i try i do but for some reason i do these selfish acts and i just want to be the kid someone loves and wants to adopt someone please help….
sorry you are wrong i am a bad girl every day

Me and my dad keep on arguing all the time over petty things and he is growing really distant towards me almost like he doesn’t want me around I have tried to talk to him about it but when I do he changes the subject, I try really hard to make him happy by cleaning the house and making him coffees all the time But it doesn’t work, I will admit I am not the easiest of people to be around sometimes I have my downfalls a lot but I try my hardest all the time but he can’t see the fact that I am, I have no clue what to do I just don’t want to lose my bond with him
Your father loves you,but sometimes when growing older he is scared of losing you. You are putting a lot of effort to make him proud,but he keeps looking away. Try to hide your downfalls,try and do things that your father loves doing. If he likes to fish,go fishing with him,or hunt deer,go with him. That is a few examples to become close again. It might even work if you tell him how you feel,that you dont want your bond to end,because you love him too much. A parents bond is more important then friend ship or school. I know he loves you,and nothing will ever change the way he feels. You are still his little girl. And when yall are talking and he changes the subject,slowly change it back. Your father loves everything about you,even your downfalls. I hope you can make your bod with him bigger then ever. Everyone needs their parents to be able to talk to about anything. And whatever made him look over you, try to apologize and make it right. Maybe that was your problem, that you did something,and he feels like he cant trust you. Try to make days where it is just yall two together having a good time. I wish you luck.
Love,no name
I don’t I’m a disappointment but what I think is that I’m the reason why my dad is stress. She raised me alone (with help) for 14 years, I don’t intend to be a pain in the**, it’s just that sometimes my mood changes that I can’t control my emotions, what I want Is for him to understand that I get mood swings a lot of times. That if he gives out his opinion, I don’t get mad at it. I take his opinion in my own way. I love my dad I sometimes wish that. He can understand me more, and that if something goes wrong that doesn’t mean that I’m the one that causes it, and I get that he thinks using another child as a role model will help me become better in the future. But comparing me to them is too much pressure just thinking how to be better at school is enough to pressure me, but comparing will like make me explode of insecurity I just want him to understand my pain so he can help me out, I don’t want to tell him because it’s like begging for a pony, I want him to understand without telling him. But can someone give me an advice. Wow, I can’t believe that I’m seeking for advice when I give advice to people, I guess that I changed anyway can someone HELP me.
Theres not much advice I can give. If I were you I would actually tell him how I feel, because I would hate to break my special bond with my father. But if you feel uncomfortable with doing that maybe you could give him hints. Hints that you are stressed, that you arent always the one to cause trouble, and that yo need him to be there for you and that you arent a mistake. People shouldnt feel responsible to keep in all there pain when they should talk to their parents about it. Its not right to compare you to other people that he thinks will make a good role model,but he just wants you to have a good life when your older and out o f the house. Its normal for kids you age to have moods because of electronics. He just dosent see that,so try be more out going and off your phone with your family. Maybe it might bring yall together,unless hes the same way.I sometimes cant control my emotions too but I always say sorry after Im done. Try that next time and good luck. You are not a disapointment to him. No one is ever in the hands and eyes of the Lord. May God be with you.

Spend a lot more time with her when you are free,and tell her you love her everyday. If you are out of the house and in college tell ehr good morning and good night everyday. Even try calling her, especially when you know she is stressed or not having a good day. Help her clean and cook when you are around her, and make good conversations,try to make her laugh. Let your funny side show to her more. Its always fun to make your mother laugh. Go out shopping together or out to eat. JUst have fun and let your crazy show. A mothers bond is so important to have, you dont want to be without it ever. I wish you luck and i hope this helps you out!
Love,No name
Just make a special meal and day where u a just alone and then tell her that you love her
i get yell at all the time and i just feel like the worst kid ever
I am 17 years old and for the last 12 years, I feel like I’m not good enough. I have a younger sister who is 10x smarter than me and she seems to be a better role model for me and I try so hard to make me the better role model, but whatever I do, she’s better at it. It’s so obvious she’s the favorite of the whole family and no one even cares about me and it hurts alot. It makes me feel like a joke.And i’ve mentioned it to my parents but they say there’s no comparison but I know they’re lying, it’s getting to the point where I almost hate who I am. Anything to help please? I’m done feeling this way
i feel you…you just need to do the things that she cant even though you are sisters you both will have your own differences try to be better and improve yourself in the things she cant like for me I am not good in studies but my cousin sister is good at studies…I am a very interactive and friendly child but my cousin sister isint… she can write poem of her own and speak english like no other but i cant…i can speak 5 different languages but she has mastered only in speaking english..and then there are similarities that you will have compitition for life…so what i mean is every persone is unique and have their own goods and bads in the end what matters are the results,how succesful you are and how a good human being you have become yes there will always be moments when you feel at your most low but remember there is a persone called as god and he treats every one equally he gives good times and bad times equally to all….SO JUST BE YOURSELF
hi I don’t know if your going to ever see this but i can relate to you so so so much and all ways possible
nice to know im not the only one with a younger sibling smarter and better than me
I can relate. I’m 11 and the situation is pretty much the same. My life is kind of broken and because I can’t fix mine, I’ll try to fix yours as I don’t want to see someone who has much more potential than me living the life I live. First, remember that you are beautiful and that you have more experience. Your sister is at the start of her life but that doesn’t define who she will become when she grows up. She may turn arrogant. Character is better than intelligence and always remember to keep your heart pure. I always wanted a big sister so I am sure that your little sis is lucky to have you. #YouAreBeautifulShay
don’t feel bad about yourself, you are a good daughter. talk to your parents about how you feel, and they will understand.
Maya they trust on you more then you do on herself the things that they dont allowed to going outside it doesnt means they dont love you it means they care about you much.
they are just afraid of the bad society and they dont want that you stucked into any problem
society is the reason that they dont allowed you to going outside
they always trust us
i have very strong emotions and i can not controll anger very well and yell at my dad but i dont want to…and i dont ever yell at my mom because she will do things i dont like so i dont.
I love my parents soooo much but I don’t think they love me because everytime i get sick or injured they don’t even care about me, but when my siblings are experiencing minor pains such as cramps and stomach ache , they are terrified as if they just lost someone they love, I’m not the type of person to share my problems with anyone but tonight I am feeling very hurt that I want to let it out :'(
Out of all the days in my life , I have been through many struggles that not allot of people can compare to . But I have tried to put all of those differences apart from my present and future and stuck them to the past . When I’m with my mom I just feel like she hides things from me . I could trust her with half the things I could tell her but , would she keep them hidden ? I clean 🧽 all the darn time and then she thanks me . However in the real world I’ll go over to my fathers house and find out it’s not good enough , the fact being that I don’t do much . When I do what I can since I’m home a lot. I feed the animals I do everything and I feel like with all my life and all my emotions building up inside that they just want to explode . But should I , would that be such a great , marvelous idea of me ? I’ve lied in my life time , had dark memories , good times that over come the bad , but no one understands my frustration. Can my mom even compare ? Would she understand ?
I have always tried to be a good daughter. My mother is a single parent. She has a lot of stuff going on and I don’t want to be another problem to her. But, I will try so hard to make her happy. I do all the work at home ( like every single work) I don’t let her do anything. Not even cooking. She just goes to work and comes back. Inspite of doing everything, I’m treated as a daughter who’s lazy and doesn’t care about her. I am lazy. I agree. But I will not let her do anything. I will only do everything but may be on my own time. She has a problem with me not agreeing with whatever she says. Yes that’s my fault. But idk. She’s never been happy for me or may be she doesn’t consider an her daughter. I feel so bad. I feel like getting lost for some time.
I feel like the worst daughter ever… I try to be a good daughter but my mum raises her hands at me and stuff and smacked me when i was younger. Even when she waves at a friend i still flinch. She grinds her teeth in anger at me and shouts at me. Always on my brothers girlfriends side. Always on her boyfriends side and always on my brothers side. My brother and his girlfriend hate me and it really hurts. “mothers love lasts forever” doesn’t feel like it when she is around. Everyday i live in fear of her. I’m even scared to ask for necessities. I even wish i was in a new family or with my boyfriend. He is the only one i feel safe talking too as well as my best friend Fred but both are long distance and i only also have my friends at school my friends at school. I feel i can’t tell her im harming myself with “tools”. I feel like i can’t tell her when i’m upset or anything because all she does is yells at me and doesn’t even help me. Sometimes she evens threatens to send me to a new family and I always say “please do”. What do i do? I feel trapped..
my family has been really religious since i can remember but now they are starting to have fights. They are mad that i even got a singing corer. im scared they might end my life. i dont want to stop singing i love doing it for my fans. i know bc im famous its a shock to c me wrighting on here,but u guys make me feel like true family. so if theres anyway yall can help me save my life and make my parents top fighting in would love yall so much!!!!! but i already love yall. but pls can someone help me with my case
hi…i just got in a fight with my mom because i did something really stupid with my best friend. this winter break has been totally crazy and totally fun but now i just feel like a disappointment to my mom. i started driving her old car and i’d pick up my best girl friend and two guys that were our friends, we all would go driving around and would just have a good old time. the boy’s said they put a tracker in my car and when i was cleaning it i found a gps box so i called my best friend and we came up with a plan to burry it to get back at the boys. we did so…turns out it was a tracking device that my mom had in our car but i didn’t know it was hers until tonight. i buried out in the middle of now where, out past the highway and we went out to look for it. my mom was furious and i mean FURIOUS. she was telling me that she wastes her money on all my music and that i’m a b*tch and that i’m just like my father, i only think about myself. now that i’m at home and in my bed, i’m thinking about what happened and i believe that mother is right. i need to start thinking before i do stuff, i need to start helping more around the house, i need to be more responsible and respectful towards her and towards her old car, i need to change but i don’t know how to do it in a way she’ll notice and be happy about. i don’t like seeing my mom anger or seeing her cry, i just want her to be happy. thank you, this article really helped.
Hi I’m a Singaporean girl, 17 years old this year. I felt like a loser bcos I was being too selfish…..all I think is about myself and my parents are really really disappointed. My family has zero income but I still being so greedy and wanted to buy this and that. I even dk how to save money while my dad was trying very hard to be extremely thrifty so that our savings won’t decrease so quickly. Now it’s already 2020, I really wanted to be thrifty, selfless and less greedy but I dk how….bcos I know that habits need alot of time and effort to change. What shld I do?
Dear Lizzy,
I completely know what you’re going through because I have constant anxiety about the smallest things. If one of my parents aren’t home then, I’m either with my sister or brother (maybe even both) or myself I would stress myself out and then when it got to much to handle, I would put it upon whoever I was at home with. I think that all we can do is try our best to work on ourselves first and I think that’s all our parents want.
PS: I’m certain that your parents wouldn’t want anyone else as their daughter!!!!!❤
So I’m pretty young. 11 to be exact, and I have horrible trust issues. Some times I even have suicidle thoughts. I just had a huge mentle break down In front of my mom who tried to sit me down and talk to me about my problems, but my mouth seemed to be glued shut. The problem is about my school life. I’m not being bullied, thank god, but my grades are suffering and I don’t know how to change them. Due to my low grades, my parent are always yelling at me and some times it even leads to them fighting each other. Their not physical, but it still sucks and makes me hyperventilate and panic. I know they love each other but it still gets to me. I don’t have many friends to relay on and my best friend is in California for the winter. Anyways, when my mom tried to talk to me about what happened, all I was able to say was: “I don’t want to talk about it.” Can someone please help me, or aleast give me some trustable advise? Thank you, and have a fabulous week! Love yall!
i am so sorry that your family seems to be falling apart,but its not. If you are having bad grades maybe go to tuders or be homeschooled. im homeschooled and i love it my grades are way better then what they used to be. i used to make 40 and under,now im making 90s and up. so my suggestion is become homeschooled,and also trust God. He will keep your family together if yall are meant to be a family. i will keep you in my prayers. and if u would want to talk more fallow my email NatalieCherie06 @ icloud.com bye I LOVE U

BTW i am 13 hope u dont mind talking with me who is probably younger than u
Hi Maria,
You have so much responsibilities… And that makes you mature enough to have that much responsibilities! Some tips I would give you is to make meals, or help your mom with groceries, help set the table or do something else. Remember to try and bond with your mother because your mother SURELY cares about you A LOT and LOVES YOU NO MATTER WHAT!! Keep being strong and keep going! Don’t forget…. Always love your mom no matter what… She gave you life… She gave you a life that you will always cherish! She carried you for 9 months…. She’s always there for you… No matter how high the mistakes are she will always be by your side! This “Reply” might not answer your question but remember that us girls always have each others back(s)! Even if we don’t seem like we do but we do!
at least your parents dont hit you and call you a mistake and now u have mental breakdowns when your 13
I stress my parents and whoever that lives with me when i get anxiety and depression i kind of wish i had a magic wand and replace myself with someone better.
i wish the same things and i feel u that happens to me too during like the holidays. sometimes i try to get attention so i can be noticed not the 1 in a corner being sad and lonely but i usually get in trouble
Hi Lizzy,
Don’t say that stuff! Just always remember that your parents love you no matter what! They love you more than you can ever know…. And if you would want to replace yourself with someone else better… Don’t because nobody can be “you” or ever replace you! Your parents love you just the way you are and always love your parents and be yourself dont be someone that your not…
Hi,
I don’t know what to do my mom is always saying I need to take responsibility for myself and now I finally do she is saying all I think about is myself.
I don’t know what to do… then I catch the bus and she thinks I don’t know how to but me and my friend have been on the route and I’m pretty road smart!
She is always comparing me to my friends my age saying why can’t you be more like them… when I try to be she never notices.
How can I get her to trust me?
my mom is the same way. i try to be a better persopn but she never notices. she even tries to compare me with my friends and boyfriend. she makes them sound better then i am
Hey Samara tell you parents you can’t marry tell your problem to them it might help or talk to a council instead
Hey Maya
Your parents love you just because they don’t trust you doesn’t mean they hate you . The reason they don’t let you go out is to protect you and keep you safe because your a daughter to them. Actions speak louder than words
The small things you should do is help them prove to them you can be trusted
My parents tell me not to do things and my mother is always saying don’t embarrass me in front of your friends later giving me the indication that I don’t deserve a life. I right now haven’t been doing well at school but I try to give it all. I’m changing my ways of doing things to help with my study but I just feel like I’m a lost cause that deserves to die.
I have been such a bad daughter to my parents . I never helped mom at houseworks. I am just laying in the bed and using phone. I am a queer girl who is questioning myself and in the closet. I don’t like wearing girly clothes. My mom and I argue with that most of the times. I am a 16 years old girl and always moody and upset. I mostly talked my mom in a high voice. I am just scared that my mom would know me. Our family is homophobia family . I sometimes wish I shouldn’t be born. What is wrong with me?🙁 I hated to talk with my parents as i am scared …
Hi Sam,
This must be really hard for you. I don’t know you or your parents, but maybe it would be helpful if you talked to your mom more. I can relate. I am moody too, and I wish that I wasn’t.
Hi, i am so random daughter. I am good by heart but may be bad by actions or mouth. I love my parents and can die for them. But i am 35 and do not want to get married or do not want to get married by the person they chose. I know they are best. But i also know my choice cant be wrong if they asess and do not become rigid. (They are of no chance to accept my choice). We as asian girls have to meet diff families or purposals. I am doing this for last 5-6 yrs. but i dont want to do it anymore. Kindly, help or suggest. I am so stuck at this point. I am very good in other areas of life. But failure at this. Help.
I love my mom but she makes me angry.she ask me to pay me back all she waste to me.my education and money she waste to me and my son.Im a single mom.How can I be good to her?I helped chores but she not see it.dad leave her and da have new girl friend.she noisy and always complain.she dont want me to talk my problems to my friends.I talked my problems before but my siblings just mocks me.how could I do to treat me good?
I don’t think you are the worst daughter, but all you need is to be trusted and live free. so that’s why you need to speak for your own-self to show them that you have grown up and they can respected that even is not that even easy to tell them that.
I usually never help my mom in kitchen bcz she doesn’t trust me cooking an doesn’t allow me to do. My mom also feels bad that i never help her but i actually want to help!! She loves my younger brother bcz he does the help needed even when my mother says a “no”. But i am unable to go against my mom when she says a “ni” for help. Am i not a good daughter😦😢
Girl I guarantee you are an amazing daughter. Have some confidence in yourself! Rather than asking if your mom needs help, take the initiative to do chores or take on responsibilities on your own she may be surprised and see maturity in you as well as develop a new level of respect for you. Moms always need help even when they say no trust me on that one.
Your mom loves you, you do not see it because you are often hurt because you see the way she treats your brother. But their is one thing that I do recommend for you (tell her how your really feel) so that she can understand where you are coming from. When I was younger I used to look up ways to be better at things but little did I know i never needed those things because only you can control your actions and how you handle situations. You are an Awesome DAUGHTER ❤️
I understand your comment also Sweety,and no I feel you my mom let me go in the kitchen once and you know what I did.burned the food,I thought it was funny. But she didn’t think so she never let me go back in the kitchen after that.Im pretty sure she is scared ima burn her kitchen down. But what makes me sad is because I’m the oldest a
nd I have a brother right after me who’s the next oldest. He does anything he plesease he’s like the perfect child she always wanted with me. I never talk to her about how I feel because I feel like it would make me a week person. Someone please give me advice.

Perhaps your parents are being protective of you, rather than not trusting you. Talk to them to understand why they won’t let you go anywhere – the reason may be something else instead of distrust.
Change the way you talk about yourself – words have power. Speak life-giving words over yourself eg I am a responsible person. I can be trusted. I am a loving and worthy daughter.
Chin up, Maya! You are enough.
I think i’m a disappointment to my parents. Not think actually, know. they don’t trust me, they won’t let me go anywhere. I appreciate them soooo much. I just don’t know what to do. I’m the worst daughter ever.
You’re not the worst daughter, you are the one that does good things but also makes horrible mistakes. Your parents love you and they want the best for you, They trust you it is just that you have to follow the rules and listen and always be honest to them and when you do something wrong you do not have to tell them immediately but tell them as soon as you can so they can help you. They might not let you outside or go anywhere because of the things that has happened to them in the past. JUST KNOW THAT NOTHING IS YOUR FAULT AND THAT YOU ARE GOOD ENOUGH.😁
Good luck:Maya
But even i do all of that they only see the badside of me they don’t see the things that ive done for them they love other kids tham me they always compare me to others thats why now im having some suicidal thoughts because icant hndle it anymore
Your not the worst daughter ever i though the same think but i changed my ways by trying
my dad doesnt like me that much cause i make mistakes…
You are not the worst you are just being stuck in the house how about you go up to them a show you inner feelings you are the best and beautiful girl just believe in yourself and appreciate them
Hey no you’re not, use these things with you’re parents and they will notice you, you’re not a bad daughter
Your not the worst daughter . I used to always think that but I changed by just listening to what they say even though its really hard but life doesn’t always give you bread and butter . All in all try your best to be the best . I wish oyu good luck 😊.
Your not the worst daughter at all, sometimes you just need to give them a second to think or maybe even a night. I have been having struggles with being able to go out with friends but I now understand that because my mum and dad have 6 kids they need a little more help with the 2 babies and also with the older kids. I am the oldest but I do need to teach my younger siblings some respect for our parents.
I feel you girl! My parents don’t trust me to do anything. And they call me a disappointment like all the time. But, I know deep down our parents love up with all their hearts. Us childern just need to learn how to be the best kids we can me so they literally have nothing to say about it. Good luck Mia!
I know how you feel I feel the same way I know its 2020 and I’m just finding this site. But if your the worst daughter than I am to because we are going through the same thing.
