More often than not, women who are parents are the caregivers in most households. From the onset the child is born, nursing begins. I appreciate all the men who are supportive of their wives, but the truth is that when it comes to raising those kids, the mothers play a bigger role.
This is why they are the pillars of the society. How mothers raise their kids, determines the product of how those children become in the latter years. Discipline, respect, responsibility are all nurtured from a young age. What mothers do is not only provide for their basic needs but also attend to their emotional needs.
If say for example a child has anger issues, a mother would point that early on and enroll that child into say martial arts, karate or any other activity to which the child can release all the negative energy. If a child likes to be alone most of the time, play can come in handy. Only a mother is able to interpret these signs early and act.
Whoever it is that raised you, give them some love for if it were not for them, you probably wouldn't have been the man or woman you are today. Cherish them and never take them for granted. They are the pillars of your society. Please let me know your thoughts on this on the comment section below. Cheers!
