Moms of daughters have a hard time letting go of their role as mothers. (“For the honorable and the sincere ones, this isn’t for you.”)

I feel like a lot of the moms of daughters do not know how to let go of their role as mothers into adulthood. <br>You see, when you have sons, it’s understood you will let go of your role as a mother as soon as the son moves out as a man no longer needs his mother. <br><br>When a daughter gets married, she will still be the baby girl as there’s a couple dynamic where the role of the mother is partially taken over by the wife. <br>So as a mother of a daughter, it’s even harder to let go of your role, as you are replaced by another woman and yet still retain the title as mother of a grown woman. <br><br>So mothers of daughters, accept that your role as a mother has expired. There’s honour in fulfilling a role for eighteen years, but there’s shame in overstaying your welcome and yet retain the title.<br><br>As I said in the title, this isn’t for the moms who know how to let go honourably, but it’s for the moms who feel like their role is still not expired, and they click onto my name to see who this ungrateful daughter is.
