Why Do Some Moms Feel the Need to Compete with Their Daughters?

It seems that more and more mothers are competing with their teenage daughters when it comes to dress and makeup. This is according to the teenagers themselves who are really getting sick and tired of their mothers trying to be like them. When you sit down and actually talk with the mothers and ask them why they feel the need to dress and act the way that they do you may be surprised at the answer.

Many mothers feel that this is their only way to stay and continue feeling young. If they dress the part and act the part maybe some of them believe that they are still young. Of course this does not mean that you suddenly have to dress as if you yourself down. It is just important for parents to understand how embarrassing it can really be for your teenager for you to be acting this way in front of their friends. Have you ever wondered why your children may not want to be seen with you in public? Could it be because of the way that you are dressed? Or perhaps it is your behavior? One thing that parents need to keep in mind is that your teenagers need a parent, not a best friend or buddy. Just try your best to remember that you can still dress in a way that makes you feel good about yourself without embarrassing your children.
