A Mothers Duty It was my first day of class and I was extremely nervous and excited at the same time. I hadn’t been a student in a classroom in over 10 years.

Women have started to receive many of the same rights that men do in the work place and at home. At home many women find it more socially acceptable to be single with a child. No longer does society look down on this. This relatively new sense of feminism has helped cause the growing trend of single mothers. With divorce on the rise, the...

Working Mothers Many women today are facing choices that their mothers never had to face. One of these choices is whether or not to go back to work after having a child. This was practically unheard of in the 1950's. In the 1990's it is not whether the mother will or will not go back to work, rather a question of when. When did the choice become set in stone? Why do the mothers of today have to work outside the home versus working in the home, much like their mothers did. When one thinks...

MOTHER Introduction The mother is the one supreme asset of national life; she is more important by far than the successful statesman, or business man, or artist, or scientist.

Mother’s love has no equals. A mother's true love can not be measured with a device, expressed in an essay, or metered in any way. The love is to be felt, heard, and appreciated.
