How Mean Mothers Impact Self-Love - Terri Cole

If I asked you who you think has had the deepest impact on your ability to love yourself – from the earliest age of your life – who would you say? If you said your mother (or primary caregiver) then you would be correct.

This week we are going to examine the impact that a mean or unloving mother can have on your ability to love yourself and create meaningful long-lasting relationships.

From birth, babies with loving mothers (or primary caregivers) get positive validation and feedback (mirroring and care) – from their very first interactions. If a mother is unable to stay lovingly connected to her child with attention, affection and care, there are emotional consequences.
