@bluemooncounseling: Not all Latina moms… but enough that we need to talk about it. Some of us weren’t raised with encouragement— we were raised with correction. “Ya te crees muy muy.” “Bájale.” “Estás pensando en pendejadas.” And now as adults… we’re out here second-guessing ourselves, shrinking, and calling it “humility.” Understanding where it comes from matters. But so does acknowledging the impact. You can love your mom… and still unlearn the voice she gave you. Tell me—what’s something you had to unlearn? Or send this to someone who felt this without needing an explanation. #latina #latinas #hispanicmoms #hispanicparents #selfesteem

I was constantly reminded that “cuando yo tenía tu edad yo era bien flaquita” 🙃 now as an adult I struggle with body image. & Having PCOS doesn’t help either!

My mom was so jealous when I was in college. She made sure she made it harder…

I always felt like I wasn't good enough, because everyone is better than me. She never put me down, bit It always felt like she was proud of everyone else but me. I tended up with two Master's degrees.

Is it possible that you are too supportive & inadvertently create the same issues? I feel like my daughter struggles with all these self esteem issues but I am always so supportive of everything does. 🤔 A therapist once told me that I did too much hand holding.

Mine was more about my looks, she would point out things I was already insecure about or new things to bring to my attention. Specially during such developing years. But then her aunt did it to her and I was able to relate to it and she stopped lol

My issue stems from being ignored in my childhood and teens. But as an adult she had an interest in me. Suddenly I was worth noticing. So it’s weird to have expectations from her now. And yet there are still things she doesn’t like about me because they aren’t given the way she wants.

Motherhood doesn't come with instructions. For those of us who truly love our children, we try to bring up strong independent people while also show them love and be their biggest cheerleaders. Finding a balance is difficult. Also, we are still human.

One of the things I learned is that I don’t need her approval for decisions that are best for me.

I was an average student with oK grades but that wasn't good enough for my parents. over time that made me believe I was not smart and doubted myself all through college. now I have 2 degrees and a carrier and I often have a hard time believing I've achieved what I have

My mom is my biggest bully… but when I say something back, I’m the problem. Trying to learn two wrongs don’t make a right but it’s so hard.

Interestingly my mom and I have a much better relationship as adults. She had a lot of toxic conditioning from her parents. I forgive her for what she didn’t know and can still recognize she hurt me
