Every woman deserves to be respected, treated well and shown care. Even more is to be done for every mother.
The mother has paid many a great sacrifice on behalf of her children. She has done many things to make sure that her child lives a life of purpose and fulfilment. What the mother is to the child cannot be fully described in words and neither can it be fully expressed in action. One certainty, she has always wanted the best for her own.
It is not every woman that is capable of being a mother (this is a reality we must come to grasp). It is not everybody that claims to be female that also has the capacity to show loving care and attention to the children they give birth to. Quite a number of ladies have killed their own babies before being born through abortion (although maybe through circumstances that they couldn't help). Even still many others have given birth to children that they threw away or offered up for adoption (all these too maybe beyond the control of the individual in question). The point being made by this write up is that you have to learn how to appreciate your mother. This goes to every mother out there, you are doing a wonderful job.
Despite the goodness and kindness of mothers, there are times when they piss off their children. And at other times, their children would be at "war" with them. This may be because so many mothers like to have their way, scold often and display reality. It is better to point those out for better understanding.
WHAT MOTHERS DO
#1 They like having their ways: most mothers are firm with their children. Their no is their no. No matter how it may seem, their children finds them difficult to persuade.
At some point, they will even stop listening to their wards. They reel out instructions to the children, not caring enough to seek their opinions. The children in turn become stubborn for it.
#2 Scold often: so many mothers enjoy scolding their children all the time. I know you can relate with this. You remember how many times your mother has made you face one punishment or the other?
Children naturally don't like getting scold, no matter how bad what they might have done is. When you scold a child, you make him or her have instantaneous hatred. This is not to say it is wrong to scold children, it is just that some mothers have taken pleasure in doing this often. Even to the point of it being excess
#3 Points out reality: it is a part of most mothers to point out reality. Mothers are not diplomats one bit, they point out issues the way they appear exactly. In pointing out the truth, most children get resentful.
If a mother sees a child taking a wrong decision or making a bad choice, they would get concerned and seek to redirect the path of the child. But as it is always the case with human, we don't like anything interfering in anything we choose to do.
It may be true that your mother has done some things against you that made you share some resentment. One truth is certain, she is your mother and will always be. Friends can neglect and reject you, but a true mother will stand by her child.
So, the call today is to appreciate your mother. If you are not on good terms with her, then you need to go ahead and APPEASE her. It really won't cost you a thing to smoothen things out with her and this will directly or indirectly assure you of progress.
