Abstract: This paper will expound on the discourse of the ambivalent relationship between the duo mother and daughter. The role of motherhood as imposed on women and how it influences their relationship with their children, especially daughters. The expectations of society for a woman to be a good mother can harm the relationship between mother and daughter. How a daughter constructs her identity in terms of her relationship with her mother. It often involves a mixture of love, closeness, conflict, and tension. This paper will discuss the mother-daughter relationship portrayed in the works of Indian women writers.
