What would make you think you're not good enough for your mother? Has she ever said or done anything to make you think that?

I am good enough for my mother! My mother has raised me to be a respectful, kind, giving and to always do the right thing. My mother has been the best role model I could have ever asked for and I feel extremely fortunate to have her in my life still.

Maybe because she just thinks that you are greater than u think u are, since she is your mum. But what she fails to see is that you are only human and you can fall at times and you can be better at times but there will also be times where you are weaker and during that times you will need her help to get up back. Try talking to her and letting her know this.

Some mothers are just like that. It's important to not take such treatment personally as it is rarely anything that you have done and rather your mother's problem. As long as you keep being you and are happy with that, than your mother should be too. Please talk about how you feel to her and tell her that you feel unappreciated too.

Some people have self worth issues themselves and take it on others by projecting their expectations on them. Know you are good enough just because you exist, and try to communicate with your mother about this issue. I hope this helped.
