1 - adaptable ( new places, new things, new people )
2 - self reliance ( any circumstance, inner defendant )
2.5 - there’s always solutions.
3 - personal strength ( emotions, mental strength )
4 - humility ( stop taking things for granted )
5 - seek out community and seek out connections
5.5 - independence.
6. Be a constant learner of life, allow everyone to be your teacher

As a 34yr old man who grew up without a mother, born to an alcoholic/drunk weakling of a father, and raised by a Polish grandmother? It was a mindfuck. You grow up craving the affection of a woman, but at the same time, having extremely high standards for a woman as a lover/partner. People need to realize just how important it is when choosing a companion to marry and have children with.

I wish i had a mom to teach me how to be a friend, a wife and a mother. I wish i had a mom to teach me how to be human.

My mother sadly passed away when I was 6 weeks old so I've never experienced what it's like to grow up with one.
As time went on I learned how to understand my feelings and accepting what had happened.
I'm just so grateful that I have such a great father figure in my life.

[malinaalina]

There is not a single day I go without thinking of her. I lost her when I was 3 so obviously I didn't grieve at that moment, I dont remember grieving when I was little or a teenager. Grieving started coming when I reached certain milestones in life and that's when I would grieve, realizing how much I miss her when I graduated, when i got married and etc.

[maribelmejia]

The same happened to me, my mother post away when I was 6& my father completely forgot about his kids once he had a new relationship& was not mentally or emotionally there while being physically there.

[tinapastor]

I wish I had a mum to bond with and share a close relationship

[maribelmejia]

My mother died when I was 6 yrs old too. I was the youngest of her 4 kids.

[sprinkles]

my mom moved away when i was 12 and i lived with my dad the rest of the time before i had to get my own place at 18. I feel like its difficult showing emotion toward woman and having strong feelings. I thing all kids need a mother and a father growing up.

[gauri]

i also didn t have mom but its hard growing up and i know my mom is seeing me i love my mum

[roxanefernandez]

My mom abandoned us when I was 10. It hurts growing up without having a mom especially if you're the only girl in the family I have 3 brothers and my father is an alcoholic.

[ritaraniritarani]

Is the worst thing that can ever happen to anyone they grow up without a mum and I understand now is so painful and hot but god is always there

[eugeniasantibanez]

This is helping me so much, our story is diffferent bt the situation is the same and I feel like it isnt something that you can talk with anyone because everyone has his mother. Thanks for this please keep doing videos and sharing your thoughts (sorry for the bad enlish)

[vincentmangal]

I'm 20 turning 21 and my mom past when I was 3 its something that doesn't go away its something I never liked talking about it seeing you talk about it gives me more strength in light of my situation.

[culgaming]

My mother didn’t die, but she doesn’t want me anymore so she left me when I was borned like 2 months

[maryofnazareth.]

This helped me soo much my mom left when i was 16m old she wasnt right in the head. My father is recoving drug addict and this video gives me sooo much clarity . thank you

[whotfislijah]

The way she talks, her hand gestures, makes me happy to know theres people out here that are JUST LIKE ME!!

[richiereed]

My mom died when I was 6 and I'm only 17 and I already feel so alone and latch on to any female I could until I realized they didnt like that and because I became tired of getting heartbroken I decided having no women in my life was better because no one understands me and I dont wanna keep feeling that pain of heartbreak. I feel very lost and just dont know how I feel or what I want or like. Nothing makes me happy I just wanna feel normal

My mom was in and out of in patient psychiatric hospitals growing up and she died when I was 11. I’m now 21. For a lot of my life I’ve denied my childhood trauma and pretended to be normal. Truth is I can’t run from the past. Finally facing it has helped me find peace. It’s gonna suck when she’s not there for big life moments but I’m learning to let other motherly figures help me. Community is crucial. I’m also extremely self-reliant but other people feel good when they help me and I’m learning to let them help.
