Upset moms! They have more successful daughters

Being that annoying and annoying mother who does not let her children out until they finish the task, forces them to pick up everything after playing and lets them watch TV for only an hour, will have their reward: your children have more opportunities to be successful


The University of Essex in England, he conducted a study in which he found that daughters of "bothersome" moms (those moms who watch us with a watchful eye while we fulfill what they ask) are more likely to become successful women than the daughters of permissive or consenting mothers.


These researchers, from 2004 to 2010, followed the lives of 15,500 girls between 13 and 14 years old. Those who were daughters of mothers who set high standards of behavior and demanded more from them were more likely to enter good universities and earn better salaries.

In addition, these girls were less likely to get pregnant when teenagers.

So, being annoying, nagging and strict moms is not so bad in the long run, even if at the moment your daughters see you as if you were the enemy.


My parents were always terribly strict with me ... My arrival times were early, my grades had to be good, my room had to be always collected and I washed my clothes since I was in 5th grade.

Of course, at that time my parents were the ogres and I saw with envy the friends who did not have to do anything and who had all the freedom in the world, and although fortunately all my friends have a pretty nice life, the truth is that now I appreciate every decision made by my parents.


Since childhood I was responsible for my decisions and the consequences that came with them. My mom was annoying ... and now she smiles with pride because her daughter does what she always wanted to do and considers herself happy and satisfied with her career.
