The refrigerator would be overcrowded as hundred of sandwiches were stored in it. His surprise birthday gift would be kept at a place that would be out of his reach. In a quick succession of time, he grew up, an adolescent, and my cuddling and pampering continued as I still regarded him as a kid. True children never grow up for parents. His birthday parties now were held in restaurants with his besties and he came home all smeared with cake and coke on his face. Dinners at home with near and dear ones concluded a blissful day of celebrations. All through these years, one thing remained intact, his strong emotional bond with us. He grew up to be a caring and compassionate, cheerful and charming lad whose priority remained his parents' happiness and well-being. When he left for his higher studies in Manipal, we feel empty home syndrome and became emotionally unstable. Each letter and note that he wrote from there became a prized possession. His living far from home turned him into a fairly mature lad with independence and an attitude of free will. It cemented the bond further.

Now, as he flies his wings with his wife by his side to far-off places due to his professional compulsions his loving and lively gestures, and surprise visits keep our laughing quotient in perfect health and good humor. So now the roles have reversed. It is he who counsels us in high and low notes of life, cheers us as a friend, advises us as an elder, and takes care of us as a God-sent angel. We have learned a lot from him to love and to be loved. If this whole world is blessed with the light of sons like him, never will a mother be hurt, and never will a mother end up in grief. What does world feminism mean? I would say with pride and head held high “Enlightened sons and progressive mothers”. May his tribe increase!

The status of a woman as a mother is very special. A y mother and adapting to the new status is really fantast

Motherhood is a major responsibility of a woman w child. Whether it is a biological child or an adopted remains the same.

The moment a woman delivers a child both her body and mind undergo a lot of change.

Motherhood is a learning process too Mainly she has to learn to be patient while dealing with different moods of her child. You can't predict its mood swings. Sometimes fun sometimes irritating a mother has to enjoy both! It's a testing time for her when she tries to feed as the child doesn't sit in one place. She has to sing and dance and narrate interesting stories to make it eat. Lullaby and stories are a must to make the child fall asleep The mother is the child's first teacher Home is its first school. A child observes the parents with a lot of curiosity. The way the mother talks, her behavior with others, her relationship with her dad, etc., form a great impression on the child. It imitates the parents and considers them as its role model. So, motherhood is a fairy play. It's a very big responsibility. A good mother is one who can sense her baby's moods and controls them with much tact

How can one describe a mother in mere words? She is a matchless Angel to her child. She is complete in herself. Her role in a child's life can't be replaced by anyone else. She is more observant of her child's growth. She tries to mend his ways. She gives punishment too! At the same time, she forgives and forgets very easily. Her love is very pristine. She sacrifices her comfort for the welfare of her child Logical-minded people don't understand her heart's ways Biologically all girls may become mothers. But attain motherhood she too needs some maturity in thinking and should understand the psychology of a child. She is the main pillar of strength to build her child's personality. If a situation needs she should be ready to punish suitably to bring it back onto the right track.

It's the main responsibility of motherhood to see her child grow into a responsible citizen and contribute to the welfare of the society to which he belongs.

It's the mother who feels both happy and proud about her son/daughter's achievements.
