Besides biological mother, surrogate and adoptive mothers may also experience motherhood in different ways. The role of a mother has been defined and redefined in many ways in today’s society.

Well, motherhood can bring great joy as well as pain and sorrow at the same time. Therefore, it is advised to stay positive and look on the better and clearer side.

Duties of motherhood

Generally, mothers are required to care and provide nourishment as well as safety for their kids. A mother’s responsibility is not complete without feeding and showering love the the little ones. It is more than just providing a nurturing life in a comfortable environment because mothers also need to ensure that the child is safe and well-cared for. Besides providing food and showing love to the little ones, mothers are required to play a good role model to the children and teach them the right values, attitudes and behaviour. Before the children reach puberty, mothers are given the right to decide what is right or wrong on behalf of the kids. Remember, mothers always know the best for the children.

In addition to that, here are some other basic duties perform by a good mother – to have delicious and healthy dinner ready for the little ones, clear away the clutter of toys spread all over the room, help and assist your little ones in completing the school work, show sincerity when you see your kids, spend some quality time to listen to your children and try to offer advice to help them solve problems.

 

Responsible Parenting

Parenting refers to the process of providing physical, emotional and social development of a child from the day they were born until adulthood. In other words, parenting refers to the process of raising a child and is definitely beyond the biological relationship between a child and the parents. As a mother, you need to understand that successful and effective parenting skills will shape and determine your children’s behaviour in the future. So besides showering the kids with love and care, parents need to impart necessary skills and values before the kids reach adulthood.

The most important element is to become a good role model to your child. Bear in mind that kids do not know how to differentiate what is right and wrong or good and bad. Children tend to imitate and follow what they see from their surroundings. Therefore, always set good and positive examples to the children. For example, when you advise the kids not to smoke but on the other hand, you are a heavy smoker, then most likely your kids will imitate your action and become a chain smoker. Besides being a role model to your child, another effective parenting skill is to praise your child’s positive performance. Eventually, these positive praising will help your child to grow emotionally. In other words, praise can be considered as a form of nourishment. Praising your child can help to build their self-esteem and provide them a sense of secure.
