Good day, people of Hive! Welcome to my blog. Even though I'm not a mother yet, from what I understand and see, I can say that mothers are really trying and doing a lot
Honestly speaking, being a mother and taking care of your children is not an easy task. Before a mother can even think about going to work only if the mother is working, she must wake up very early around 5:00 AM in the morning to cook, bathe her children, dress them, and prepare them for school.
Some working mothers need to be at their workplace before 7:00 AM. And before they can say they have to go to work, they make sure their children are not late for school, and still make it to work on time themselves.
Sadly, many men believe that taking care of the children is solely the mother’s responsibility. While it's true that it's mothers responsibility,but who says fathers can't or shouldn't help? Marriage is about partnership, and parenting should be shared. Even the bible said in Ephesians 5: 28: "Husband ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself."
Mothers are always prioritizing their families. Instead of thinking about themselves, their husbands and children come first. As a husband, it’s important to help ease your wife’s burden, because some women are really struggling and trying.
I recently watched a movie where the woman was the manager of the company she's working at and also caregiver for her home. Due to the stress at home and at work, she eventually fell sick. So her doctor told her to be on bed rest for a few weeks.
She asked her husband to help take care of the children during that period because of her sickness, but he refused. He said it wasn’t his responsibility, that his only duty was to provide. The woman was shocked. Because this was the first time she had ever asked for his help, and yet he said no.
Despite being sick, she kept taking care of the children because she had no choice. That’s how strong mothers are.
Now let me ask this question: if a mother dies and the father is left to handle everything including taking care of the children, can he cope? Most likely not. He would struggle, and because of that the children might be affected. But if a father dies, most mothers continue taking care of the children without much change, because they were already doing everything and use to it.
Some mothers will return from work as late as 6:00 PM, and instead of resting or changing out of their work clothes, they rush to the kitchen to cook, make sure their children eat and sleep peacefully, and ensure their husbands are comfortable too. Even when they’re tired, they don’t stop, because they feel it’s their responsibility.
In contrast, most men just come home, freshen up, eat, and sleep. That’s the end of their day.
In conclusion, mothers are truly doing a lot. They make sure their children never lack anything such as love, care, or support. That’s why most children are closer to their mothers, that's because she’s always there for them.
Thanks for reading💞💞💞💞💞.
