41、tell you how wise they are because they have been alive at least 20 years longer than you." This doesn ' t mthat the mother and daughter relationship can' t be very close and satisfying. This generationof mothers and adult daughters has a lot in common, which increases the likelihood of

43、ser together.Best friends may or may not continue to be best friends, but for better or worse, the mother and daughter relationship is permanent, even if for some unfortunate reason they aren ' stpeaking. Sometimes this is not an equal relationship. Daughters don' always feel responsible for

44、 their mother ' s emotionalnwe But mothers never stop being mothers, which includes frequently wanting to protect their daughters and often feeling responsiblefor their happiness. The mother and daughter relationship is a relationship that is notreplaceable by any other. Mothers always勝過 “ tru)

50、pon others, please stop. Make a conscious decision, rather than focus on the negative aspect of a person s performance or attitudes, and you canoffer helpful suggestions.

51、tigognetshat might make it easier for you? ” rather than have him point out what a careless painter I am.If you reon the receiving end of criticism, the “ OK” response is a perfect solution.When someone comments negatively on a task you redoing, the natural response is to defend and attack.

It s important to keep calm andlisten without feeling, to be an objective observer. There is much that one can learn from a negative review. You can ask yourself: Could I ha

If so, how can I improve?In any event, one should remember the saying, “ Stopjudging and you will not be judged. Stop condemning and you will not be condemned.” On
