What's the role of a mother in our society?

The role of a mother is the role of any parent, be there for your child no matter what, they are always the first priority, and do whats best by them, even if its hard for everyone.

I personally think that my role as a mother is to physically and mentally take care of my daughter. By physically I mean feeding, bathing, making sure she's in clean clothes, has her teeth brushed, that sort of stuff. By mentally I mean being here for her in every way and loving her as much as I possibly can.

I think the overall idea of the role of a mother according to society is close to what I described, but then everyone is different and views things differently. Some mothers have children or a child and think nothing of it. They continue on with their care free lives and let other people do all the work in raising their children. Then there are some that couldn't imagine letting anyone else raise their children but them.

I view motherhood as THE MOST IMPORTANT role ANYONE could EVER have. As a biological, adopted and foster Mom to 13 (so far), I wouldn't trade being a mother for EVERYTHING in the world!!!!! As a mother, we teach all of the basics in life like manners and how to do things. More importantly, we shape who our children will be in the future and in turn our children shape our future. What mothers do and teach their children has a DIRECT impact on society. There is a song that I LOVE that explains HOW IMPORTANT motherhood is, not only to the child but to the world.

Aside from the obvious biological imperative of carrying the child for nine months and giving birth, there is no such thing as a mother's role and a father's role. There is only the role of a parent, which is to always put the child's well being first when making decisions, to love the child unconditionally, and to prepare the child for the rest of his/her life to the best of their ability.

The role of a mother is to take care of her children. It's as simple as that!

She creates the world's culture everyday, she creates THIS culture as well. Enough for you?

To beat their kids with a stick.
