What would you like to tell your daughter? What do you wish you could tell – or have told – your mother before it's too late?

What do your friendships mean to you? Is there a particular friend who's brought you back from the brink?

Welcome to a site that's dedicated to relationships; between mother and daughter, between sisters, between friends. Sometimes these relationships are fuelled by unconditional love on each side, sometimes they can be filled with pleasure or fraught with problems – we can have a confidante for life or we can find it impossible to tell our family and friends how we feel.

So, please use this site to say whatever you need. You might want to share advice on how to deal with relationships; you might want to offer up a personal insight; you might simply want to tell us how much you love your mother or daughter or friend; and you might want to share words of wisdom for future generations of women.

Please, share your thoughts and take a moment to click on the film clip below to meet Elizabeth Noble, author of the novel that inspired thousands of women to blog here.

    My precious girls

    You were the best gift i have ever been given. I didnt think that i could have children, when Charley came along i was over the moon and even though i ached to give her a sibling, i thought i probably wouldnt be able to. When Ruby came along i felt totally complete. My two beautiful little girls. I often used to sit and watch them both sleeping and feel just this unbelieveable unconditional love. I would go the end of the earrth for my girls and nothing that they could ever do would stop me loving them, they are my life and soul and the reason i wake up in the morning. They are only 4 and 19 months am i am so looking forward to all the adventures we have yet to face and all the speical mother daugther things we will hopefully do.
    Charley and Ruby i love you both more than anything in the whole world and will watch over you until i close my eyes for good.
