A mother will try to fulfil all of her child’s needs. But what is it that your child truly needs from you?
In this post, I want to share the 7 things a daughter truly needs from her mother.
A mom and a daughter’s relationship is very special. They share a special bond which cannot be described in words.
I have a young daughter who is my everything. The bond I have with her today is the result of my constant effort to understand her more every day.
Today I can proudly say that I am successful in raising her and can confidently share here with you all the efforts I made in raising a capable human being.
Today in this post I am sharing with you what a daughter needs from her mother.
It does not matter how old your daughter is.
My daughter turned 31 years old this January.
I am happy to share that our relationship is growing stronger every day and even our thoughts and vibrations match every now and then.
You can still learn what your daughter needs from you.
So without any delay let me get started.
1. Your daughter needs your support
Your daughter needs your support. No matter what her age, a daughter needs continuous support from her mother starting from breastfeeding to any age.
She looks upon you every time she falls or achieves anything in life.
As she grows older, she looks up to you for all kinds of support, whether with her homework, her food, her hobbies her dresses and about almost everything.
This is the time to make a strong bond with her.
It is not only about material things every time. She needs your moral support as she grows old.
She will need you more when she reaches her teenage.
It is the most fragile period and most crucial age when hormonal changes take place and she gets confused about everything.
If she is taken care of and gets extra support from a mother then her life will go in a better direction.
At this age, there is a chance of making the wrong decision because of wrong influences, so you must support her
For this, as a mother, we too must constantly change our lives and work on our personal growth.
You have to be very aware and give her more support with your care and attention, by being friendly with her. So that she will not hesitate to share anything with you.
By building a strong bond you can be her great support in her challenging times and you will be the first person she remembers when she faces a difficult time and when she needs to make wise choices.
I was my daughter’s great support when she decided to drop out of college in her second year.
All the other family members, especially her father and her grand mom were totally against her. But I trusted her and stood beside her in her decision.
I trusted her with all my heart and convinced my husband. I knew the decision she was making was best for her.
After she dropped out and changed her subject, she then started to do extremely well in her studies and began to top her batch.
Today I am happy to share that she is now an Assistant Professor at one of the best Government colleges in Kolkata and also a successful blogger blogging at vishakablone.com
2. Your daughter needs your warmth
With your warmth, love and care she will grow up to be a great human being.
Give all your heart to make her feel your warmth.
Make her comfortable sharing her secrets and dreams with you.
Surround her with your arms around her when she is sad, and give her a kiss praising her for any small to big achievements.
Tease her, share jokes, crack jokes, pamper her. These are all the ingredients of warmth you are giving to your daughter.
I always kiss her and pamper her even at this age.
3. Your daughter needs you to be Self Confident
A good mother wishes her daughter to be self-confident. This is the most important quality every girl should possess.
As she grows, she needs to make decisions by herself because a mother can’t be beside her all the time.
She must learn to become self-sufficient with her confidence.
But as a mother, it’s not all about teaching your daughter to do this and that verbally.
Your actions must speak louder than your words.
She is learning from your behaviour and actions from the time she is born.
You can’t teach her how to gain confidence.
Here you need to be an example. You need to be confident about yourself first.
I used to take my daughter all by myself for admission to her college and university. I travelled long hours in local buses as our financial condition was not good.
I took her on vacations with the little money I saved to show her new places. I did them all with total confidence.
With each challenge in my life, I was gaining more confidence and imbibing my actions into my daughter unknowingly.
How you handle challenges and navigate life is how she will learn to handle challenges in her life too.
If you succumb and get frustrated with life, she too will see life from your perspective.
How you see life will in turn be how she sees life.
That is why do everything with confidence to impress your daughter.
Your courage in turn will become her courage. Your strength will become her strength.
4. Your daughter needs you to believe in her
Your daughter needs your faith for her.
You must have strong faith in her. Trust her with all your heart.
Believe me, if she breaks your trust in the beginning don’t stop believing her.
With your continuous trust in her, she will no longer do the things which you do not like.
She will eventually become trustworthy.
She will think of you before doing anything.
Have faith in yourself for your daughter. It will help her grow into a beautiful human being.
5. Your daughter needs your good values
Teach her good values from an early age. This is what she is going to carry for her life and which can help her to lead a good life.
Teach her to have compassion for every living being, value the things around her, and respect Mother Earth.
Cultivate in her the habit of reading good books.
These are the most important values you need to give to your daughter.
Reading will help her grow by herself. The book will become her best companion.
6. Your daughter needs your presence
Your daughter needs your presence more than anything.
A mother’s presence is a healing balm during her troubled times and adds joy to her happy moments.
Be there not only physically, but mentally too.
When you are with her be with her fully. Listen to every minute detail she shares with you. Give your time mindfully.
Believe me, if you are present in her bad days and good days, you will always be there whenever she needs you.
Even if you stay far from her, the universe will send you to her before anything happens.
We lived separately for one year due to her work and our two dogs, Bella and Missy.
But when her pet cat Mia passed away all of a sudden, I am grateful to the universe that I was with her during this tough time of hers.
She was shattered and sad and I am grateful, my presence could heal her in a great way.
She had already sanctioned her leave for a month and could go home with me.
Your presence as a mother makes a great difference.
7. Your daughter needs your prayers
Nothing is stronger than a mother’s prayer.
You cannot be with her 24 hours a day, but she can be with you in your prayers.
She will remain connected with you through your prayers. Be sure she will receive all the protection from the universe undoubtedly.
You must have total faith in your prayers. Your daughter needs your prayers.
I remain far from my daughter, but never far from my heart.
I am assured, that she is well and protected.
So these were the 7 things a daughter needs most from her mother.
Whether you are a new mother or someone who has been a mother for a long time now, we can always still work on doing well in our motherhood.
As a mother, we must continuously work on improving ourselves first for only then can we be a good example to our children.
I hope that we all become good mothers to our children for good mothers can change the world slowly and surely.
