I noticed my mother secretly crying one time while I was playing a video game on the computer. hah I think I still remember what game I was playing. Anyways, moving on... I ignored it and continued playing my game. I consciously ignored her; it wasn't like I was so mesmerized by the game that her crying didn't faze me, it was because I didn't know what to do. We were in the same room but she was crying secretly (or not so secretly).
The odd thing is that if that happened right now, I wouldn't know what to do still. Our family members don't cry in front of each other. We don't talk about sadness either. I try not to cry in public because I know it puts others in an awkward position.
What did you do? If not, what do children usually do in this situation?
When you were a kid (preadolescence), what did you do upon the sight of your mother crying?

I think children usually feel uncomfortable upon this situation. But one time I cried and my child gave me a hug that really worths a thousand words. Yes, I cried even more, but I couldn't tell my child why I cried because I didn't want my child worried. But then my child tried to say some funny things about her friends to relieve my stress, and that helped me too. Your question shows that you care about your mom. Yes, she does need your help too. Good luck. I think any little things that you do just for your mom can help her: Ask if she's tired; make a cup of tea for her, gave her a small message on the shoulder...etc

Well, I have to say it's a little odd that you didn't do anything. I would have (still would) gone and sat beside her and gave her a hug, probably rubbed her back or stroked her head. I'm a pretty loving person and I feel the need to comfort someone in pain or sadness.

Sometimes my mom and stepdad would get into fights. She's cried a few times. The first time I saw her it scared me so bad I started crying myself. I didn't know what to do, either. But I was always a sensitive kid, and I figured if something was making her sad, it'd make me sad as well. My dad has cried too, even more than my mom! I ignore him. He does it a lot. If either of my parents were to cry in front of me today, I'd want to know what was wrong. I'm older now and know what parents aren't superbeings. They cry too. I'd want to find a way to make them feel better.

I would go to her and ask what is the matter, & try to console her. I usually end up crying when I see others crying even though I'm not a really emotional person.
