Our mother took care of us when we us ever since her egg and our dad's sperm fertilized.., it isn't easy to carry us nine whole months.., and have to endure the aping of giving birth and staying awake really late just to make sure we won't be crying out of hunger any more.., when we grew up.., we tend to be stubborn and refuse to listen to them sometimes.., we want to get our way.., but will you reach to the extent of making her cry just to get your way.. I won't.. I love my mother.., despite all the nagging she did.., I respect her and it will break my heart to see her cry especially if I was the one who cause it.., How about you.., How do you feel when your mother cries? because of you?

it's heartbreaking. i already saw her cry and it hurt me to the point where i almost reached out to hug her. don't call me cold-hearted or ungrateful, but my brothers and i, we're not one to expose sympathy to my mom through physical affections. sure, we love her, but that's that. we never felt an initiative to HUG mum when she was down. rather, i get my "motherly affections" from my dad and i'm more open to giving him hugs than my mom.

well.., i suggest you start showing some affections to your mom too.., don't you know that mothers are sensitive and emotional.., they lone to be held and feel appreciated for everything they gave up just to take care of us.., their children.., I'm sure a single hug will make her feel good..=)

It seems like we can take almost anything except being hurt by our mothers. This was especially true when we are children. Now that i am an adult, I am still devastated when my mother says or does something to hurt me. I can still cry over something my mother says to me. If anyone else said it, it wouldn't bother me nearly as much as coming from my mother. Our mothers gave us life. it is only natural that we always want acceptance from them.

It's probably because.., we have this connection established with our mothers.., from the very moment we shared their circulation through our umbilical cords inside their womb.., even we are adult already.., we still have that unique bond intact despite how much time have passed..=)

Hi, For sure, I will feel sad if I make my mother cry. So far, I never talk back to my mother ,although she nag and scold me. I will just keep queit and walk away. But I hardly being scolded by my mother since I was a kid. The only time she will nag at me when my test results was not good,then I will have to listen to her nag for wholeday. I know that my mother love me alot. Now, I have grown up and have my own family. I have been away from my hometown for so long and I still have close relationship with my mother. We always chat on the phone and she will come to visit me when she has a free time.

First of all why should we make our mothers cry?.As a matter of fact we have no business to make others cry particularly woman.They are embodiment of love and compassion.It is rightly said that God could not be everywhere and so he created mothers.There may be children who do not love their mother but there is no mother who does not love her children.I cannot imagine how I feel if my mother is hurt physically or mentally.

I've actually made my mother cry many times. (We've argued a lot... everything from petty things like lateness to big things like her stubbornness.) I always felt bad, but it all worked out in the end. I think it's good to just let out all those feelings and thoughts before my mother or I explode.

Everytime I make my mother cry. it's like I am being ripped off to many pieces. The one who gave us life is usually the one we hurt the most. God and our mothers. But what I am always hopeful about is that somehow, no matter how difficult the situation may be, how big is the hurt- Mothers have the biggest hearts amongst all. Because they already forgave us even if we haven't done anything bad yet. I love my mom very much and I did promise myself to make up to her for the rest of my life. To thank and show her my appreciation of the many sacrifices she made. :D Cheers to our beautiful and loving mothers.

My mum was a good mum to all of us. She still is even if we are already grown ups and she's just too old to still taking care of all of us plus grandchildren.:) There were times in my life that I saw her cry. My older sister made her cry then a lot o times. Long story... I told myself I will not make her cry for it had broken my heart to see her crying. When I was old enough to stand on my own, I got problems, too and there were conflicts between me and my parents. So, in one instant, I made he cry. She cried the whole day because it was the first time I truly hurt her feelings. I was remorseful for I broke her heart! It made me realized how stupid I was. No matter what misunderstanding we have I shouldn't take it against her. After all, I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for her...I maybe right with what I said to hear during that fight but I have no right to hurt her.Nor I don't have the right to question her... It was very disrespectful of me to did that...
