A mother is a biological and/or social female parent of an offspring.[1] Because of the complexity and differences of a mothers’ social, cultural, and religious definitions and roles, it is challenging to define a mother to suit a universally accepted definition.
Motherhood – What does it define to be ?
In all cultures mothers play different roles . Everyone has a different reality . That makes motherhood a different experience for us all .
For me motherhood is something I looked forward to embracing since I was young . Being a stay at home mother . It was about nurturing my children into kind well mannered and polite thoughtful humans . Take them to the park, the zoos and the museums . Teach them about the world .
When they were school age Motherhood was all about being involved in the school . Always staying excess-able . Supporting my children’s education . Being able to volunteer for class trips and school functions . For me a big part of motherhood .
Motherhood is also about having a close relationship with my children . They should be able to feel comfortable to come and talk to me about anything . They should know that I am unconditionally there for them .
The biggest part of motherhood is the joy in my heart watching my kids grow .
