Bad, Change and Regret...

Hi,
.
I saw one drama in television about a mother and her daughter. Once she was a bad person who likes to scold her daughter and forcing her daughter to do what she wanted. .
Until one day, her daughter caught in an accident and passed away. This makes the mother have a change in heart. 360 degree change. Since that day, she never being bad and never force people to do things her way. This behavior of her causing people starts to step on her head and starts to do bad things to her. She never fight back as she would do before her daughter died. Now, she is just a quiet person.
.
She has a son. This time, she let her son do whatever he wanted to. This son of her look at this as an opportunity for him to do whatever he wanted to. Because of no control by her mother, this boy grow to be a bad person and doing a lot of bad stuffs. Until one day, he involved in a big fight and was beaten to his death.
.
Now this mother had been caught in between. Being forceful cause her daughter's death and not being forceful had caused her son die. Now she felt regret and don't know what to do.
.
For me, the best way to manage this problem is to be moderate. Being not too forceful yet too flexible. There are time for everything. It's a matter of how we get the timing right. Somethings need us to be forceful for example, directing our children to study.
.
Take your time to think about this.
.
All the best,
.
