Yup a mother is a child’s lifeline I’ve said this a million times to many ppl including my mother. Mothers like Naomi’s are 🗑🚮 and because I know what you are talking about. I raise my baby with total acceptance, love and honor everyday not just sometimes. The silent generation was the worst and they raised many children just like them. But it seems Naomi tried to break away from that to not pass it on to her children but didn’t fully succeed.

Right there with you! I'm hoping this brings more awareness to generational mental issues. My Grandpa is a veteran who was in Vietnam and can be cold and tough as nails. He was abusive in the way he would discipline my uncle who had a disability and also especially, my mother, the oldest. My mother grew very cold to me at a very young age, I was a product of divorce, domestic violence and drugs and alcohol youngest years and again in my early teens. Her coldness left me very confused and sad a lot of my life. Now, I'm 30 and still trying to mend that relationship. My relationship with my mom are so much a like Winona and Naomi in certain ways I can see it after re- watching their show.

I've heard stories of others who were like this but I'm so thankful that the women in my family, though we've still faced emotional problems and mental health issues, were never so cold as this lady was.

Depression comes from family emotional disconnections… from dysfunctional parents. If one parent isn’t present, physically and/or emotional in a child’s life, then he/she will grow-up with a permanent emptiness in his/her life. Healthy love of both parents is greatly needed to become an adult free of emotional illness…. But the mother’s role, of bonding is the most critical… The father can be missing, but the love & care of a great mother cannot! This story is a great example 💔

This is so sad. You can see the contempt her mother has for her. Her mother and my mother are exactly the same. She would NEVER be able to receive validation or true affection from this woman. Sadly I understand completely and struggle with the same feelings of knowing I not only have a mother that didn’t love me, but having a mother that actively tries to tear me down and wants to see me fail. No level of success makes you immune to the mental agony of it.

Mom's body language is saying much more than her mouth. Poor Naomi. Growing up with the ice lady must have been very difficult. People just don't realize the lasting damage a parent can make on a child. People think you can just get over it or grow up and grow out of those feelings. It's usually the opposite. Those feelings just grow and get worse, unless they're truly dealt with.

Her mother didn’t forgive her for that and they were estranged for years. They didn’t make up until the funeral of Naomi’s dad. Parents shouldn’t put their kids in the middle of their problems. I was around Naomi every year at fan club parties. She was the sweetest person. She made u feel so welcome. It rips my heart out to see the recent videos of her where she was clearly struggling mentally. My hope is that she and her mother are together and that they are at peace.

It's sad that as loved and adored as she was by her fans, that was never enough and the one person whose love she wanted most was never able to give that to her. In a way, not nearly as much, Naomi was also like that with Wynonna. I read Wynonnas book recently she said when she brough Naomi on the Oprah show it was because she just wanted her to be her mom and say she loved her and instead Naomi ended up plugging her book instead of just hearing what Wy wanted to say and letting it be about her and what she was going through.

Yes, it's generational trauma. I was watching Ken Burns Country music documentary recently and the way Naomi spoke about her daughter, I was shocked! I sat there and thought why is this woman stunted emotionally, that she feels some sort of jealous personal competition with her own daughter?? That just spoke volumes about her maturity as a mother. Her words made it seem as if they were two bickering sisters instead of a mature mother with a daughter whose talent she was proud of and wanted her to rise beyond. Then I do some research on her own mother and it all made sense. Wynonna also passed it on to her daughter no doubt. Terrible and sad.

The mother is very removed emotionally. I had a mother just like this and I ghosted her permanently. Knew she never loved me. She even told she didn’t love me. I just was fed up with her toxicity and stopped by the time I was 26 sending Mother’s Day cards, stopped all holiday cards and gifts. Stopped showing up for holidays. Never saw her again. She never even asked me what was wrong. She died in 2015. Was not invited to funeral. Never would have gone anyway. More to this story but I just went no contact with my family of origin period. Researched toxic family dynamics and went no contact .

I was doing family ancestry research in October 2019... I find an obituary online. My father had died in May of that year, and NOBODY, not friends, not family, not a soul told me. Turns out he had a widow maker heart attack, and she continues to play the victim. If there was any reason to doubt my decision, this cemented it. She still sends Christmas and birthday cards to my kids, and I just keep sending them back. She lives in a gated community, and can come/go at any time. Nobody can enter there without a passcode. I am always looking over my shoulder. It's been very difficult.

The only thing positive about having lived with her is my sense of right and wrong... And that I am a hard worker and keep a nice home.
