What a perfect answer to your daughter when she said she hated you!! I too remember when my kids would say they hated me. I always countered with "That's ok hon, I will always love you no matter what".

Children don't know how to voice their pain and hurt. It comes out simply in their own ways such as saying "I hate you". You did a fabulous job supporting her and letting her know it was ok to feel yucky and voice it too without her having to worry about a negative reaction from you.

You are doing a wonderful job!
