Dear Mom… Letter from your Teen

Being a mom includes several challenges, staying up late, changing diapers, and taking care of bruises: the primary communication is the baby crying throughout all of this. Communication should be much simpler when they grow up, but this is not always so easy. Teenagers are not always easy to understand because they are also trying to understand themselves, which can sometimes be challenging. Mothers can feel insecure, lost and confused because of communication difficulties. This mother’s day, we would like to give you some insight into what they think and feel. Using anonymous notes, we asked teenagers and some young adults to say what they would like their moms to know this mother’s day. Here are the few messages we received:

Dear mom…

I love you. You have always been enough.

Dear mom…

You are an angel sent from heaven above. I don’t know what I’d do without May God bless you

Dear mom…

I wish you’d be happy for me. Your approval means the world to me.

Dear mom…

You were my guiding light and my best friend. How I treat those around me is thanks to you

Dear Mom…

 I never knew I was nothing without you

Dear Mom…

I’m going to make it in life so I will pay back for the bananas.

Dear Mom…

Thank you for giving birth to all those servants; I love my siblings

Dear Mom…

You are loved, you are appreciated, and you’re the best

Dear Mom…

You deserve a lot more than this world could ever offer you. Only heaven could bless you as abundantly as you deserve, but still, I will compete with the celestials just to see you smile.

Dear Mom…

I have a lot to tell you.

Dear Mom…

Not everyone from a certain country or culture is terrible. I just want you to understand that

Dear mom…

I love you, and I see all the sacrifices you make to give my siblings and me better life

Dear mom…

You are my rock. I am who I am today because of the wisdom you imparted in me. I love you

Dear Mom…

I really love you, and I really appreciate everything that you have done for me. Even though I didn’t understand where you are coming from in certain situations, I will always love you, and I appreciate how you raised me. I will raise my kids the same way.

Dear Mom…

I know I am not moving at the pace you want, but I am also trying to figure it out. Please have a little more confidence in my methods. I know I can do it

Dear Mom…

If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be here today. Literally, if you didn’t give birth, I wouldn’t be here. Not only are you my pillar, but If it weren’t for your trust and faith in me, I wouldn’t be here. If it weren’t for you showing me how to do things in life, I wouldn’t be the woman I am today.

I’m able to say my name with confidence because of you. Thank you, mom, for always being there. Thank you, mom, for every little thing you do. Yes. Sometimes we fight argue, and I don’t want to do the dishes. I don’t want to do this or that, but I know I need your love.

I can’t wait to be a woman just like you.

The messages are varied, some are begging for understanding, and some are appreciation. Either way, it is always satisfying to hear our children’s voices. Take these messages as a chance for you to listen and reflect on your relationship with your child.
