"After I came here, when I was just fourteen, I began to think about myself sooner the most girls, and to know that I am a "person"." -quote from Anne Frank diary. The hard situation in hiding had made her more mature and independent than other girls. She knew well about herself, and what she would like to do. She liked to be different. She didn't like to be treated like all other girls. For her, "the fight to get on too was more important than all else." She wanted to live differently from ordinary housewife.
She was not very happy with the way her mother had brought her up. She said that "I imagine a mother as a woman who, in first place, shows great tactless especially towards her children when they reach our gawk and who does not laugh at me if I cry about something-not pain, but other things-like"Mums" does." And this was the probably an image of an ideal mother who she wanted to be when she grew up. Her mother considered her daughters more like her friends, but Anne thinks that a friend can't take a mother's place. She wanted her mother to be someone she can look up to and respect.
She did't want to be Mrs.Van Daan either. She was pushing, grumbled about everything and was scared of many things. She was not the best mother too. Peter had the feeling that he lacks parental love and he had talked about that with Anne. Anne had also shared and discussed those feeling with Peter.
The person (thing) which she shared most of her feeling was Kitty, the diary. She had hoped that Peter would be the one who she can share her entire feelings, but that did not happen, because Peter was not much willing to do that. Writing these thoughts in diary was very important for her because she didn't have anybody who she can reveal her thoughts openly and her diary was somebody who will listen her without complaints and blames. She could organise her thoughts and pour the overwhelming emotions by writing.
Anne wanted to become a woman fast and she had often asked her sister about the girls things.
In her diary, she wrote how she would do when she becomes an adult and raise her children and promise it to herself that she would not become like her mother and Mrs. van Daan.
Anne said "I imagine a mother as a woman who, in the first place, shows great tact, especially towards her children when they reach our age and who does not laugh at me if I cry about something- not pain, but other things- like "Mums" does". This paragraph showed how she would like to be as she becomes a woman as like her mother.
Anne said she miss having a real mother who understands her. She wrote it on her diary as saying "Mummy herself has told us that she looked upon us more as her friends than her daughters. Now that is all very fine but still, a friend can't take a mother's place. I need my mother as an example which I can follow, I want to be able to respect her." She didn't like the way how her mother behaved to Anne as like her friend and she wanted her mother which she can follow which she is able to respect her mother.
Anne either didn't like the way to be like Mrs. Van Daan. Anne said "she is well known as being very pushing, selfish, cunning, calculating and is never content. She is an unspeakably disagreeable person".
She has no one to talk about these things so she wrote in her diary that how they behaved to Anne and how Anne felt of them.
Anne knew about herself very well and she was very clear about herself. She grew fast because of the experiences that she had because of the war. She was very cheerful but sensitive and strong. She didn't depend on anybody and goes straight in her way.
She hated her mother. She didn't want to be like her. She said that her mother didn't understand anything about her and she wanted her mother to think about her. She also said that her mother was not like a mother and she's more like a friend. I think this means she wanted to be a proper mother who can understand the children and think about them more than anything else.
She also didn't want to be like Mrs. Van Dann. Mrs. Van Dann was a very selfish person and her son Peter wasn't feeling comfortable, so I think Anne didn't want to be like that and she wanted to be like a mother who can be respected by the children.
She had never thought herself wrong. She thinks the way she does is everything correct. She wanted to become a woman not like her mother or Mrs.Van Daan.
Anne and her mother's relationship never developed because Anne didn't like her mother. Her mother never treated like her sister, Margot who is pretty and smart. Anne thinks that her mother does not understand her thoughts and feelings. Anne considers lacking in affection from her mother. Anne often wished to have a nice , caring and warm mother.
She also did not want be like Mrs.Van Daan. She is selfish, scold and always fight. Mrs.Van Daan's son, Peter also felt in the same way as Anne. He wanted more love and affection from his parents and Anne and Peter usually shared the feelings on this.
The diary was the only one whom she could share her innermost emotions. She could write the feelings towards to her mum and Mrs.Van Daan honestly. She needed someone or something to tell every emotions.
She wanted to be a woman, and she didn't like the way her family calling her a child and treating her like a child.
She loved Peter Van Dan but she hater the other Van Dans. She even didn't like her mom. Her sister is smarter than her and she loves her cat but more than that, Kitty.
Kitty was the only thing she could share her secrets, feelings and everything. Which actually made her happy.
Anne always wanted to grow up fast and become a woman, because she didn't want to be treated like a little child. She wanted to be a little bit like Margot, but nothing like her mom. She always knew that she admired her father more and that it would always stay that way. She told herself that when she turned into a woman she would be different from her. Stronger, wiser and more encouraging. First Anne thought that Mrs. Van Daan was too scandalous, dramatic and exaggerate, but over the time she began to realize that she was actually supporting and someone you could talk to, but she still wanted to be different and a bit like her farther and Margot. Anne started to believe that she could live and grow up independently and did not need any care or lessons from her parents. She truly believed that she knew how to make her own decisions and still have a potential life without her mom, Margot and even her dad. Sadly she couldn't discuss this feelings with anyone but Kitty, until one day she talked to her father and emptied out her emotions to him, which did make her change her mind a little bit.
Anne always dreamed of growing up to became a women fast, as fast as possible. She was sick of being the smallest and always being treated like a little child,(the typical reaction of being the smallest in the family) that needs help for everything! In her dairy, Anne often talks about growing up, puperity, later also about her Periode, being mature, development, adulthood, etc.
She often told herself, that one day when she becomes a Mother, she wants to treat her children different, than Mother and Mrs. van Dann do. She often thought of would she would do in the same situation.
Growing up was a major topic in her dairy, and "Kitty" was the right person for her problems and felings. A place or thing where she could share her true feelings and emotions about a topic that every teen is thinking about.
Anne's image of herself varies from time to time as she looks upon her mother and Mrs.Van Dann. As she writes in her diary, she describes the two ladies as someone who she doesn't want to be because she doesn't find them as the perfect role models for a young girl like her. When Anne thinks about her future and imagines herself as a mother, she wants to form a better image of her mother. She wants to be the kind of mother that her children will look up to and consider as a role model. She doesn't plan to be a mother like Mrs, Van Dann either. Mrs. Van Dann isn't the perfect image of a mother either, she complains, fights, is scared and flirtatious and doesn't give enough love to her family. Anne has always dreamed of growing up fast, becoming more mature, and not being treated like a little child anymore. She shares every bit of information with Kitty. As she writes her diary, she takes examples from the people around her, how they behave, their personalities and decides how she wants herself to be like as she's older.
Anne describes herself as having a desire to grow up into an adult as soon as is possible, to not be treated anymore like what she feels like is the equivalent to an infant by her family. She confides all her secrets in a diary named Kitty. She debates all the aspects of the enigma about how to raise children properly, and talks about the apparent lack of the solutin in the Annexe. She does not wish to resemble her mother, but she wouldn't mind imitating her sister in small quantaties. During the time in the Annexe, she seldom speeks well about her mother compared to her father, who she believes will always remain more important to her than the earlier. However she does confide her secrets to Kitty about her mother, and how she will never forge a strong bond with her because her mother does not love her the way she loves Margot, and because her mother never seems to try to understand her feelings and emotions, and does not provide the necessary support for a teenager like herself, especially in a time such as these. Anne discusses of how she would raise a family, describing the perfect motherly image she will one day try to fulfill, which is according to her not apparent in either of the female parents of the household.
In the starting of the book Anne says that she did not like the way she was brought up by her mother. She also says that her mother was a little bit ignorant of her and didn't care about Anne's feelings. She tells that mrs. Vaan Dan keeps complaining of every small things that keep happening. She tells that she would never want to be like both of them and would want to be a complete different person.
Anne had a change of feeling towards her mother. She started to realize her mother's love towards her and started to love her back. She was sharing most of her feelings with kitty(her diary) and she also started opening a little with Peter in the end of the book.
