Why Do So Many BLACK MOTHERS HATE THEIR DAUGHTERS? The Mother Wound Explained

On this episode, you get to meet Jennifer Arnise, an author and guide who helps black women navigate toxic relationships with their mothers. Jennifer shares her personal experiences and insights into the complex trauma that stems from strained mother-daughter relationships. The conversation delves into the "mother wound" and its impact on self-identity, discussing generational trauma, societal pressures, and the unique challenges faced by black women.
This episode highlights the importance of reparenting oneself and developing a healthy sense of autonomy, while also addressing the broader implications of these dynamics on personal growth and emotional well-being.

    And as soon as we do something they can brag about they want to play nice. When I brought home a white boyfriend my mom was all smiles (weird flex but ok. If I brought home a black boyfriend it wouldn't be as great or something?🙄). When my middle sister went to the army my mom tried to play the concerned mother role. When our eldest sister married into the suburbs my mom wanted to visit every weekend like it's her house now too. It's just so weird that you don't like us until we do something you didn't think we could pull off.

    Mother’s like this are simply the type of women who simply hate women in favor of men. They Probably were like this way before they had daughters. Then they have mothers who favor the daughters vs the sons because they hate men even before they had their sons.

I grew up in white schools and realized the white daughters were TAUGHT by their moms to maximize their femininity to gain free access and assets. Our mothers teach us to work hard like a dog and to NOT get married. Last year, when I expressed an interest in dating for marriage she SNAPPED and threatened to cut me off from inheritance... the next day she had visitors from cousins, aunts, and nieces showing her potential brides for my brother who is 30 and lives at home with her. He doesn't have a degree and never worked a day in his life, he ONLY makes his bed but the maid makes food and waits on him. He's her first born and spoiled little Prince.

    This conversation is deeeeeeeeeeeep!!!! My mother is in a wheelchair at this moment resulting from a stroke. I love her. I don’t hate her. But I simply cannot wipe her ass. I was verbally mentally emotionally and physically abused all of my life. She even allowed her siblings to treat me horribly. But my brother was her golden child. I forgave her but simply CANNOT bend over backwards to come to her rescue. I am now a mother and I strive daily to be better than she ever was. I hug my kids. I speak positively to my kids. I tell them I love them. I protect them. I nurture them. I never make differences in them. I went through therapy. I am now at a place where I can tell her I love her and call her beautiful. Things she never did to me. I tried to hug her and she pushed me away. She told me she loved me for the first time after God put her in that wheelchair. My brother…The golden child…WILL NOT HELP HER!!! Yet my family…her toxic abusive narcissistic siblings expect me the one they abused to come save the day. I’m not doing it. I’ll FaceTime her but I have no desire to wipe her ass.

They get jealous of nothing, and they might be the most beautiful. Book Daughters of Narcissistic Mothers. I think she had trauma in 1936 and also went to her "diva" grandma her sisters did not have the traits. FB on Living with Narcissistic have helpful "cards". Hope this helps. It is not color, it could be class in some cases but I think it is feeling powerless, and her mother was busy raising 7 kids.

She said she hated how I never needed her like my sister and brother. I NEEDED THAT.

I always use the clients perspective to guide the conversation. I understand that all mothers “aren’t in fact doing their best and it’s not ok to accept things just because she’s your mom.” Great conversation ❤️ I wish love and healing for us all!

    bookL Daughters of Narcissistic Mothers. My mom had trauma in 1936 but also was with her "diva" grandmother my aunts were more kind. They get jealous of "nothing" and as you know do not seek help for themselves. Also a Ph.D. told me it is not taught until your level as they " ain't the Paying Customers" and never seen council. The child has to "parent" the parent. Thanks for all you do, also the FB pages re: narcissistic have "cards" for how to deal with the traits. Signed, I could never be thin enough and I am now 67.

It’s complex.

    My mother wasnt a friend at all. From the day i was born she was antagonistic and hateful towards me. Apparently she threatened to strangle me as a infant until my father stopped her. My grandmother took me in and raised me until age 7 and then sent me to go live with my biological mother. For 4 years, she was abusive, physically and verbally, extremely mean towards me, sabotaged anything or anyone that was loving towards me. Never had my back, went around telling people lies about me as a child and teenager. When i was 23 or 24, she made the comment "i looked better than you when I was 24". Thats when i realized she was my first hater, bully. I have been estranged from her since then. Its been 12 years. But as an adult i began to understand why i showed up in female friendships guarded and defensive. I saw every woman as a potential hater, to be mean,rejecting towards me.

I would be getting ready to leave the house, feeling good and cheerful, only to feel her eyes on me, filled with seething hatred. Her first words in the morning would often be similar comments. I felt hurt and disgusted, but I eventually realized her words had nothing to do with me. I’m sorry that you went through that trauma.

    This is a convo I would love to be a part of. My mother broke my heart when I realized she was my biggest bully. The way she raised me was to only care about her and to live in her reality. If I didn’t participate in her world she would disown me. I would have to tap dance and do everything for her to talk to me, let alone be there for me but she never was. I always felt like a burden to her, like she hated me. I felt like she raised me to be stupid and not think for myself and if I did I was being disrespectful. She lied about my biological father, told me another man was my father only to realized they used me as their pawn to cheat on his wife for 30 years, and I recently found out she knew my sister was molested and did nothing to protect her. My mother is the big bad wolf I’ve always been scared of. An absent Father is hard, yes. But an unhealed mother is the most dangerous person in my opinion. I have 4 children, 2 girls. I was so afraid of having girls cause I wasn’t taught how to be a woman. Though I still learning through these podcasts, therapy, and healing, I can say it’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done. I missed the mother I will never have. But I’m the mother I needed to my girls. I will never say or do half of the things my mother did to me. I’m healing for myself but also for my kids. I want them better than me. My mother wanted me to suffer like her or more. The adult daughter/mother pain is something you can’t explain. Thank you for this convo❤️

I hate to admit it but I think a part of her enjoyed my suffering. I refect on things she's said in the past like, "What do you mean you had people over your place? Who would want to be friends with you?" I've had to keep coming back to this over the years, hoping that I'm wrong or don't understand her enough. But the truth is this person doesn't really love me (probably doesn't know how). Very, very hard to face.

    I think a lot of Black mothers from yester-year don’t want to admit that they fell for the okey doke…they thought having kids by men who weren’t going to raise them or by men who would mistreat everyone in the household was the ‘play’ and they played themselves in the end. They see what many of us have achieved on our *own* and the freedoms we have fought for and afforded ourselves through hard work and dedication. They see how many of us are *CHILDFREE* and like it that way and how we travel or own property or whatever and they wish they’d had the courage and sheer audacity to dream bigger for themselves but got up in the *fantasy* of things instead of seeing the reality of their situation. When they said don’t ’mess up like them’ we LISTENED (which they probably didn’t expect) and now we are reaping the rewards of their warnings and thriving in larger numbers than ever before! Naturally, that will cause mixed feelings from the very same women who wanted better for their daughters but don’t know how to reconcile that with the envy they hold deep down that we did what they couldn’t.

    My mother left me with my father when I was almost two years old. For most of my life she would brag about how she left me. As an adult woman my mom is only present in my life when it benefits her. She wasn’t present throughout my entire cancer journey but she showed up to my final chemo treatment, wearing a shirt that said “I’m God’s Favorite”. Just to post pictures on Instagram. I finally started working and she’s already asking me for money and if she can borrow my car when most people wanna borrow sugar. I need emotional space from her so I can nurse myself to health.

    my mother always accused me of being stupid, untrustworthy and not able to choose good friends. I never understood why she thought so little of me and always stressed myself trying to prove to her otherwise. she always talked about my size although she was plus size and I'm thin, she was married to my dad so this is not a single mother issue by a long shot. later I realized she hated that my dad treated me better than her. well in her eyes he did. It was so freeing when i went to therapy, but sometimes therapist will have you sympathizing with an abuser, you can understand them but there is no excuse..... absolutely NO EXCUSE only thing I can thank her for despite the emotional trauma is making me an overachiever.

    I've got an Eastern European mother who terrorised me growing up. Her constant screaming (PTSD) shut me down, I became compliant and a people pleaser. I was terrified of authority and was taught only salvation was in a man. By 40 I was a shell of myself, used and abused, physically mentally and emotionally broken. After the last SA, I wasn't able to go on and the only place to turn to was my mother whom I had a terrible relationship with. Due to the degree of trauma suffered I did ketamine therapy and very quickly was able to get in touch with my inner child. Who had a lot to say, and I found the right words. I finally stood up to my mom after one of her freak outs. I also noticed she behaved exactly as my abusive ex. She was shocked and initially pissed of that I even spoke back to her. I kept my ground and stared her right in the eye each time. This was the most terrifying thing, telling your parent their difficencies and appearing non grateful. Within days her whole demeanour changed. After 40 yrs my mom hugged me. Our relationship is so much better now but I have to gently teach her how to treat me. Soon after that, I was able to.put up boundaries in other areas of my life and got rid of a lot of toxic people. Once I stood up to my Eastern Euro mother I could stand up to anyone. At 28 my mother lived in a refugee camp with is and would be shot at trying to get us food. It's hard to stay mad but the child wound needs to be addressed for healing to happen. Thank you for this beautiful talk. And yes, my brother is the apple of her eye

    This is a much needed conversation that needs to continue and scale because there’s a lot of us out here. For the daughters who are truth tellers please continue to tell your story for your own healing and also to try and break these toxic generational curses/traumas for daughters that come after us. The shame associated with being an unloved daughter who never felt good enough and the outcomes (PTSD, perfectionism, hyper independence, lack of trust and more) that come as a result of being emotionally, mentally, spirituality abused by your mother to the point that you physically can’t be around her is almost unbelievable, but it’s real.

    This is the most affirming video that my 65 year old self needed to watch at this specific moment. Mother wounds caused me to normalize being "othered," gaslit, demeaned and wronged. Then, I had horrible experiences in therapy early on because their training was to keep you engaged with people who don't change to conform because generationally, this was the way things were. I have finally decided that almost all of the people I held space for in my life - blood and otherwise, can kick rocks! I have blocked and ghosted all those who make me feel wrong or wronged and those energy vampires who take from me disproportionately to what I give to them, leaving me depleted. I am spending time alone and loving it. Having those conversations with my inner little girl. Loving her. Allowing myself to be super picky with who I allow into my life.

    I unfortunately relate with both these ladies. I began to mourn my childhood and relationship with my mother when I had a daughter and saw how she trusts me in ways that I could never trust my mother. She used her words and lack of compassion and love to tear me down. Til this day, in my 40's I am having to heal. You cannot heal continuing to give excuses or compassion toward your mother, until you give it to yourself. We deserved better, we are worthy of love. Great topic of conversation.

    I’ve noticed that some mothers have messed up their own lives. To only find their daughters doing it differently than them. They become jealous and want to live their lives over by snagging onto their daughter’s lives. So when the daughter out comes is a lot better a mother becomes resentful . Some mothers don’t know how to respect boundaries and think just because they are the mother. They think you’re supposed to always jump and ask how high. Not realizing you’re your own person and allowed to be and make decisions on your own. My mother never respected my preferences In who I choose to date. I like the choice of dating outside my race my mother likes her own. So she think that just because she likes who she likes I’m supposed to like the same. She never respected my decisions or my boundaries so I speak less to her. Because we are two different people and she knows that. Her life isn’t my life and my life isn’t hers. But some moms think they can live their life through that of their daughter. Instead of correcting whatever it was they did in their own life they’d rather latch on to their daughter’s life. Which always back fires on them in the end!! Daughters speak up and shine your always good enough😊

    My mother NEVER liked me or my 2 sisters. As adults, we figured that out. As children, we gave her a wide berth. She was a cold piece of work. When our mother became ill, we sent my adult niece (Niecy) to Indiana to talk to our mother to gain insight into why our mother treated us like she did. My mom never wanted to discuss this topic with me or my sisters, but my niece, the 1st grandchild was the "Golden Child." We knew Ma would talk to her & we were right. My niece flew in and spent 3 days with her grandmother before she became chronically ill. When Niecy got back home, she called me & her mother. Niecy told us "She loves y'all but she don't like either of y'all". We knew that, but we didn't know why. Niecy said that Ma wanted the lives my sisters & I have. She was jealous of us. My mother was born during Jim Crow and most women couldn't decide to do anything but be married & have children. She wanted to go to college & become a nurse, but growing up in the segregated South, she thought she didn't have that option. Niecy couldn't get Ma to talk about the traumas she suffered growing up. A lot of our Black mothers went thru things that they took to their graves. Those things shaped who they became, and who some of their daughters suffered through. My mother was an excellent code-switcher. In public, she was elegant, poised, well-spoken, gracious & stylish. But at home? Chile... My friends did not believe it until they saw it for themselves. Everybody didn't have June Cleaver or Clair Huxtable as a mother. Thank God for our Dad. He was our rock!

I am afraid for her to have my address due to the fact she may show up or hire someone to follow me or harm me...I am afraid to introduce her to my adult friends because she will get their numbers and fake like she is being "motherly" and then dog me out to them, to prevent me from having emotional support/love outside of her...I thought I was an oddball growing up and the only one going through these things...I still won't tell a man I am dating until after we are perhaps, engaged...because people look at you different and don't get it unless they are living through it. I made it through, but there is a fine line in forgiving an extremely toxic mother and protecting yourself physically, emotionally, and mentally. She is still a predator. And I have made peace with that. I show her respect when I see her. I even visit her and my father about once a month...but I keep it light and leave it at that.

    Listening to this and reading the comments, I never thought I could love my mother any more than I already do, because my love is beyond infinity for her. I do have a deeper level of respect and love for my mother now because she was and is such an amazing mother to me. She’s literally phenomenal. This makes me appreciate her even more. I cannot imagine having a different mother who didn’t love or support me, or was abusive towards me. My mom is in her 70’s and we are so close. Now I understand why so many other girls and young ladies looked at my mom as their “2nd” mother-figure. Continue to get your healing ladies. 🙏🏽

    I did my mother's care she lived to 102. It helped me to really see her and her struggles, but you know the borderline will never seek council. She was good student but had traumas in 1936. In marriage she COULD have taken a course but she did not. She could have lived some of her dreams before I was born, she did not. The daughters are expected to "parent" the parent. that is just wrong and sort of impossible. Also the borderline is jealous of everything and nothing. Book Daughters of Narcissistic Mothers might help all your clients. Also my mother thought Mommy Dearest was a comedy! Cheers. signed, was never thin enough.

    I remember exactly where I was, how old I was, what I was doing, what I was wearing, and why I was crying to my best friend for the umpteenth time about "Why doesn't she like me? Why doesn't she love me?". So when My mom told me just last October, the depth to which she hated me... Even though I knew when I was 6 that I would NEVER be enough -Not even good enough, just enough- It hurt to hear her say what I already knew in my wounded child's heart. I haven't spoken to her in almost a year, and to be frank, I hope I never see or hear from her again. If she died tomorrow, 2 things would happen: I wouldn't care, cry, or show up to the funeral, or, I would show up to the funeral, and stand far away from everyone as a representation of how I felt separated from the family, and wear my favorite colors just to make it clear that I don't respect her. Even in death. The "She's still your mom" statement is repulsive to me. It Holds no weight to me because she chose everything over me. Money, sex, alcohol, men. I was merely an accessory to her life, and nothing more. She *knew* she could be a better parent, she just didn't *want* to be a better parent. Her Mindset was "You can do better, but not better than me." When the Loved experiences of a person are nonexistent or are overshadowed by the lived experiences of a person, you get what you deserve. If you don't want people to have negative experiences of you, perhaps you should treat them better.

    This was one of the more informative, insightful podcasts I've seen in a while. So thank you both for this. Something even as a man I've been dealing with with my mom, which seemed to get worse around my teenage years when I started searching for my own autonomy not only from her but my family as well, so it's always nice to see other people put things I've felt into words. Topics like this are equally as reassuring as they are heartbreaking because I hate to see other people have to not only experience this, but move through life with the residue of it. Plus, as black women, I couldn't imagine how much more crushing/defeating it is to have to deal with. Much love to yall and salute for having the courage to fight to be who you actually are, not just for your kids, but for yourselves as well. Side note: There's a book called "How to Talk So Kids Will Listen, and Listen So Kids Will Talk" by Adele Faber & Elaine Mazlish and it's a communication book geared around children but it has a lot of practical exercises on how to communicate with kids that translates really well when we use it to self talk to our own inner child. Jennifer mentioned the importance of reparenting ourselves and that's a resource that's done wonders for me.

    It’s a cycle. My grandmother was treated badly by her mother, and they are still not close. My mother also had bad experiences with her mother, and then she passed on those bad experiences to me. May my mother rest in peace. I rarely received motherly love from her and was often put into adult situations. When I was in middle school, I got into an argument with my mom about my father, who was incarcerated at the time. It had a profound impact on me, and I threatened to harm myself with pills. She and my grandmother used to compare me to my father, saying hurtful things about him. I struggled with being called lazy, lack of care for my mental health, and lack of emotional support. My mom was embittered by my father's mistreatment of her and took it out on me. While I knew my father wasn't perfect, I didn't want to be in the middle of their conflict. During my younger years, I experienced depression and severe anxiety. I was quiet and awkward at school and got bullied for it, so I had to deal with bullying at school as well as at home. All of these experiences made me a loner. My dysfunctional home life growing up still affects my mental health to this day.

This is a real thing too. Just because you're not around it, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. It exists. And stop acting like this only happens with Black folks (those southasian people will give you a run for your money). However, on these social media streets, some people tend to focus only on their trauma bonding, & from what I have observed, when it comes to Black folks they love focusing on how terrible, horrible, & how they hate their Black mothers . You either have how black sons hate their Black mothers (this was in the mid-2000s) & now you have how Black mothers hate their black daughters. One thing I have noticed when it comes to other ethnic groups, they will focus on how horrible any family member or whoever else was horrible to them growing up, as well as, giving credit to the parents, relatives, etc. that were good to them as well when they were growing up. This is why it is so important for Black Women to go live their LIFE & NOT have children if they don't want them. Please use protection & if accidents happen, please take care of it. Don't hold your lives back to raise a child/children if you really don't want one/any. Black women pursue your dreams & your purposes in life. In this way, Black women won't have to worry about having sons hating them or them hating their daughters because neither of them would exist.
