What do you think of the mother-daughter relationship in "Miss Bird"?

Lady Bird's mother accused her time and time again of being selfish and not cherishing what her parents did to her.

But what I can see is that Lady Bird's application fee is the salary she saved by doing summer jobs; even if the birthday cake is a small piece, she doesn't forget to give it to her father; she saw her father's medicine bottle in the bathroom, she He was also keenly aware of his father's illness. Although she yearned for freedom in adolescence, she became rebellious and sometimes vain, but she never concealed her love for her parents. This was ignored when they started arguing and she was described as a white-eyed wolf.

This kind of accusation from my mother is really sad, and it should be experienced by many people. It is not the child's choice to be brought into this world by the parents. When children are still weak, they need the love and protection of their parents, which is not something we can decide. Even if parents are disappointed with their children, please don't turn the dedication to the children into reasons for blaming the children and into the pressure imposed on them.

Even if the love of our relatives is the armor to protect us, I also hope that the armor can be lighter, at least not to add an extra burden to the already heavy life.
