Am I a bad mother if my child seems entitled?
It is a question many mums are too ashamed to say out loud.
When a teenage or adult child becomes demanding, dismissive, blaming or emotionally hard to reach, mums can start carrying all the guilt.
But this is not about blame.
It is about understanding the pattern.
Sometimes over-giving, fear, guilt and walking on eggshells can slowly shift the balance in a family relationship.
Inside Beyond Lonely Street — Mothers Heartbreak Hotel, we have real conversations about motherhood, heartbreak, boundaries, guilt, entitlement, low self-esteem behaviours and finding a way forward.
