Although every mother tries to be as good as possible to her daughter, sometimes their relationship can become unhealthy and thus harm the child's development.
As psychologists explain, there are several clear indicators that reveal that the relationship between mother and daughter is anything but good. N1.
One of the first signs is a mother prone to criticism. While it is clear that any mother will tend to point out her daughter's faults in order to help her, being overly critical only shows that there is something wrong with the mother-daughter relationship.
Psychologists claim that every relationship, especially the parent-child relationship, should be based on understanding and not on constant criticism, writes "Very Well Family".
Another sign of an unhealthy mother-daughter relationship is comparison to others. Most often, it is about comparing the daughter with her peers, friends or sisters.
All this, psychologists warn, is a sign that the relationship between mother and daughter is broken because it is based on finding flaws, not on emphasizing virtues, reports Index.hr.
Other signs of an unhealthy relationship are an emotionally unavailable mother, a mother who is preoccupied with herself and her own problems while ignoring her daughter's problems, and a mother prone to insults.
