Mom, listen to meMom, show me I can always count on you. I will grow up and I can trust myself.
Mom, tell me you like to talk to me. I will grow up and know I'm interesting.
Mom, talk to me about the feelings. I will grow up and understand myself.
Mom, do not forbid me to cry, to get angry, to laugh, to be glad. Let me be alive, show my feelings, acknowledge my mistakes. I will grow up and I will know that everything is ok with me.
Mom!
Mom, notice what's going on with me. I will grow up and be able to be emotionally close to other people.
Mom, comfort me when it's difficult when I'm wrong when I've failed. You comfort me instead of punishing me. I will grow up and be able to support myself and others.
Mom, ask me what I like, consider my needs and interests. I will grow up and be able to take care of myself and others.
Mom, allow me not to love what you love. Do not want what you want. Do not be what you want. I will grow up and realize my true wishes.
Mom, allow me to refuse you, not to agree with you, to protest. I will grow up and be able to say "No".
Mom, give me freedom, stop controlling me. And then I will grow up responsible.
Mom, do not make me an adult, let me be a kid. Allow me to be weak, small, needing. And then I will grow up independent and independent.
Mom, just like me. I will grow up and feel valuable.
Mom, stay with me while I'm a kid. I will grow up and will not suffer from loneliness.
And something else. Hug me more if you love.
