(2019·陕西质检二)How to get on with their daughters has been bothering many mothers. Below are four texts from four women reflecting on an article written by Susan.
Anna：
My husband and I both read this article and we think it is moving, thoughtful, and the ending is wonderful. People cannot deny (否认) that envy is a natural emotion between children and parents. You have written what I am sure most mothers feel, but are too scared to admit.
Clare：
When I realized my daughter had become a young woman, I didn't have any feeling of envy. On the contrary, I felt protective towards her because it is too natural for young girls to meet men. So I didn't envy her. Instead, I offered her advice on things like wearing fancy clothes which men saw as charming, and hoped she enjoyed her life.
Lucy：
As the mother of two girls, I was moved to tears by your article, because it reflected so many of my own feelings. I don't think I should feel ashamed if I admit that I can't get on well with my two daughters. But I love the way you have put into words what so many mums feel at this stage.
Beth：
There is some form of envy between mother and daughter. I remember suspecting that my mother envied me. I understood that she was not happy with my father and the good relationship between myself and him. The strange thing is that years later my own daughter and her father have a good relationship with each other and I canfeelenvystealingin.
