"She is not the girl that her mother wanted to be."
Quote:If I say- She is not the girl that her mother wanted, it makes sense to me.
Yes, me too though I don't think it expresses the intended meaning. It says that Mom herself wishes she had been a better person and that she wishes the same for her daughter
Quote:When "her to be" has been added to it, it seems awkward to me.
