Spend more quality time with her. Try to think about things from her point of view as well. We usually tend to think we're right, sometimes we might have to think if the person is actually right..

Try to understand each other. Be a cliche and try to "walk a mile in each other's shoes." Sit down with her, talk with her like you would a friend or a sibling. In most cases, not all unfortunately, but most, our mother is our biggest supporter. She gave you life. She spent lots of sleepless nights consoling you as you cried, waking up every other hour to make sure you were safe and warm and happy. She does care and she does love you, but she is a person too. Just as you hurt, so does she. Be mindful of that and the situation will work itself out.

I used to have multiple rows with my mum, but I eventually put my time for her, such as helping around the house, sitting down and just talking with her, mums are great if you can get on their good side ;)

By trying to find things that you have in common with her and doing these things with her. That might help you bond.

Well you can get along with your mother better by being truthful to her for starters and having important conversations and bringing her into your life more then you ever did before. Making time with her to discuss anything that is on your heart as well. You want to keep the doors open to your mother and you want to always tell her how your feeling as well. No secrets between you both here. Live the best ways you can from knowing that you are free when you live an honest life for yourself here. No better way then living a life actually!

Try doing more things with your mom. Parents like to be involved in their kid's lives so maybe try going to see a movie or plant some flowers with her and have some bonding time.

Relationships are not easy no matter what kind they are. Honesty is the best policy in relationships and talking about things when it is bothering you is also good. The effort of giving and taking is also important.

I always make time for my mother and treat her now like my bet friend. When I was younger we fought but now I realise that she just wanted the best for me and we love to spend time together now

Try expressing how you feel about your relationship with your mother to her. Plan days where you can spend time with one another doing things you both like.
