A MUM has caused controversy after revealing she doesn't "like" her daughter, thanks to her "passive aggressive" behaviour. The woman explained that her "sweet little girl" has been "replaced by a brooding, know it all, passive aggressive roommate". She added that she knew something was wrong because a lot of her mum friends have been "upset that their kids are leaving/ left for college", while she is "looking forward to it".
"I'm tired, she exhausts me," she added in the Reddit post, which was titled: "I don't like my 18-year-old daughter". "She has taken the joy out of parenting," the woman concluded, adding that her remarks make her "feel like a horrible mother". And people in the comments section were divided as to whether the woman was wrong or right in the way she was dealing with things.
"Sounds like some toxicity on the parents part too, ya know?" one wrote. "My mum didn't like me from early teens through adulthood," another added. "She finally did a lot of self reflective work and has made efforts to just love me back. "It breaks my heart to read this because I wasn't a bad kid, and my mom hurt me a lot.
"When I decided I was done trying it came out as passive aggressive.". "There a lot of women who grew up in your daughter's shoes, and it’s a really painful place to be when your mum can’t accept you growing from their little doll to a women with thoughts and opinions.
