The 5 Stages Of Relationship Between a Mother & Her Daughter

• You begin to know how to care for her.  Mothers often remark that true, unconditional love is a concept that isn’t understood until you’ve had a child, especially a female child.
• Identify her natural tendencies. Is she shy, or extroverted? Is she a home person, or does she thrive outside the front door? What sounds does she respond to? Colors, smells, and sights? Is she fiercely independent, or does she crave emotional and physical attentiveness?

•  Many daughters are in awe of their mothers. They find hem beautiful and incredibly wise.
• It is also within this phase that a daughter’s fear of becoming separated from her mother becomes realized, enhanced, and intense. This is because the are used to having mummy around for everything, it is crucial in this time to begin offering your daughter a taste of independence
•  Allow her to make decisions on her own, but ensure that you, remain the primary force of love and authority in her life.

3.The Pre-teen Years

From roughly eleven to thirteen years old, those little girls who refused to be away from you now begin to separate emotionally, physically, and mentally.

• Daughters begin to identify more with their peers than their parents, relying on their peers’ opinions more than their mother’s.
• It is at this stage that these young women start to see the cracks in their mother’s personalities, as nobody is perfect.
• During this stage, girls become increasingly aware of the opposite sex, at times, making daddy more important than mum
• At this stage, make it clear that your daughter is not to cross the line of respect and obedience. This may involve discipline and explaining why you are doing so.

4. The Adolescence years

Parents often say that getting through teenage years are the most trying and exhausting. Bear in mind that your daughter is experiencing a lot of emotions that are primarily due to hormonal changes. She wants to fit in, get ahead, look great. It’s important for mothers to control their temper in this phase.
