mother daughter relationships

[shootingstar]

Just think badger, at least you have a common language if you wish, to communicate in complex sentences with your mother.

We can't. (and language lessons isn't going to solve this since mother tongue language must be used several times per wk. We aren't speaking Chinese that often anymore. We're working in jobs and have friends which require English.)

In a way, then in our situation the mother-adult child relationship must exist intuitively at its most basic level and trust becomes even more critical with inabilty to express complicated issues/feelings.

We get along better with my father since he can speak English and has a milder temperment.
