Dr. Tannen states in her book, “You’re Wearing THAT,” that the three areas that create the most conflict between mothers and daughters are hair, clothing, and weight.
The unproven assumption for this is that mothers see their daughters as reflections of themselves. Thus, when daughters do not look the way a mother feels they should, the mother becomes upset and negative.
If you find yourself feeling this way, as a mother you should try to examine the ways in which your daughter(s) reflect you in a positive manner. Does she have similar values and attitudes? Do her friends always say that your daughter is a person they can count on? Is she a good friend? Is she a hard-worker? A dedicated parent? A dependable volunteer?
Your daughter may not wear her hair in your favorite style, but if she is the kind of person whose character and values make her an asset to her family, friends, employer, and community, then take a moment to pat yourself on the back and to feel proud. At that moment, your negative thoughts about your daughter’s clothes, hair, and/or weight will melt away and you will be left with feelings of pride.

Thais,Thank you for sharading this truly inspirading story. We all can rleate someadhow to this premise, with my story havading to do with letadting go of the bagadgage and weight of lisadtenading to what everyadone else wanted from me, to be aa0respected, rich physiadcian. Although Ia0do indeed love the medadical field, Ia0realadized after spendading thouadsands to prep for the MCAT and all but comadpletely exhaustading myself menadtally, that it just wasn\‘t what ua0truly wanted to do as it would make it difadfiadcult for me to spend time with my future famadily, and comes with an extreme amount of stress, of which Ia0do not hanaddle well. Ia0was still livading with my father, as he thought it was best (I am 24) . Within the last few months Ia0have moved out, and found the courage to finally express what Ia0have been supadpressading for so long. It was incredadiadbly scary as Ia0have always looked for the approval of everyadone in my famadily before makading any tiny litadtle step. Ia0can\‘t begin to explain how libaderadated Ia0feel now, and how strong as well. Ia0stopped lisadtenading to everyadone else, and made deciadsions for myself for once; Ia0have never felt more exhiladaadrated and happy. Ia0am still suradprised how acceptading and supadportadive everyadone is, even if they are still aa0litadtle wary about my path.It brings me aa0great amount of joy to hear that you have choadsen to rise up and see the whole sitaduadaadtion for what it\‘s worth, and realadize YOUR own worth as it is abunaddant (even though Ia0have only met you two brief times.) Ia0can honadestly say you radiadate beauty and love and it is infecadtious to everyadone you are around. So many peoadple would choose to curl up and beat themadselves up being in aa0simadiadlar sitaduadaadtion, Ia0have seen it, and it is just not healthy. You are so aweadsome !!Great read: Living With Joy by Sonaya Romancheers!Love, Brittaney(from the coladliadsion shop !).
