Why is the mother-daughter dynamic such a complex one? Some mothers want to walk and talk just like their adult daughters. Some daughters need their mothers’ acceptance before they make any move.

Questioning the Intimacy of Today’s New Mother-Daughter Relationship , explain why mothers and daughters can have a close bond but should never take it to the level of being best friends. Plus, find out how to get your mother-daughter relationship back on track if you feel you’ve become more friends than family.
