Do you share your inner thoughts and outmost secrets to your mom ? Have you told her about your lovelife and share things and emotions. I wanna know your views about sharing secrets with our parents.Do you think is it right for us to confide with them or just keep our secrets to ourselves.

Its' cool that your treating each other as friends, wish I am also like that but its sometimes harder for me to get acquainted with her because she is a businesswoman and time is so valuable with her. Even when am still a kid we don't share stuff as she often times get mad at me and she can never understand me at all, maybe because she is young when she got married.She is just 18 years old when she conceived me .We do accompany its other sometimes when shopping but that was all it.

I do now that I'm twenty three. Not all of the inner most secrets. Things that with her point of view I know she wouldn't understand or want to accept, but in general if there is something bothering me I have no problem telling my mom. My Dad on the other hand I don't really tell anything too personal. He has a bad habit of not having any tact when trying to tell you something important to him. If something is bothering him he just kind of blurts it out in a very hurtful way, on occasion. So I try not to fuel his fire really.

sorry to hear that, anyway I hope you had someone whom you could confide a secret. I myself hardly speak stuff with my mom. It's like she was never there at all. So cheer up!

i have shared every secret with my mom and i have not kept any secret this depends upon the mutual understanding b/w u and ur mom and it may vary from person to person and it is something that is personal and not all of us can do this so this is entirely a matter of choice and if u think that it will not cause any problem in discussing the secrets then u can go ahead and discusss it with ur mom

I guess you have a very close relationship with your mom, I wish I am also like you but I really can't am so secretive and my mom is not that type of person whom you can tell secrets to. She will surely tell it to everyone espcially my family as we have closer bond with each other.

I wish I could, but I never did really get along well with her ever since I was a kid. I do envy those persons who could talk to their mom about almost anything in the world.

I do share my thaught with my mom but at times i think she does not understand me. I do tell her most of the things but yes not every thing. The person with whom i share all my thaughts and secrets is my husband.. he listens to everything i say with such sincerity as if it is the most important thing in the world for him. And you know what i love him for this.:)

I will never share secrets with my mom since she is really a type of persons who reacted differently if told. She always had side comments about stuff, and I don't want to hear a lot of criticism from her. She is also that type who can never understandso much better if she won't know anything.

I believe secrets are the ones that we "chose" to keep to ourselves. Definitely I do not tell them to everybody, not even my mom. I share things to her but not all. There has to be something to be silent about. I confide to her about some of my views and problems but if the issue is so sensitive to discuss with, I keep my mouth shut. :)
