While motherhood is not the stereotypical home making occupation that it was in the 1970 's, it is still one of the most important roles women play in this country. In "Motherhood: Who Needs It?" Betty Rollin openly expresses her negative opinion of motherhood. Throughout the essay Rollin elaborates on many reasons why motherhood is overrated in America. Rollin says that, "The notion that the maternal wish and the activity of mothering are instinctive or biologically predestined is baloney." She first touches on the subject of motherhood as a science. "Women have childbearing equipment. To choose not to use the equipment is no more blocking what is instinctive than it is for a man who, muscles or no, chooses not to be a weight lifter." Rollin then refers to God as the cause of the "motherhood problem". "... the word of God that got the ball rolling with 'Be fruitful and multiply, ' a practical suggestion, since the only people around then were Adam and Eve." Rollin quotes psychologists and doctors who support her theories, not ones who do not. She says that most mothers are unhappy, but do not admit it. Rollin rambles on throughout the essay telling how the motherhood myth is affecting the children and their mothers. She manipulates statistics to make them reflect her theory and does not give both sides of the argument. This essay while being outdated is full of fallacies and one-sided information influenced by the authors ' social points of view, which misinform the reader.…
In tragic plays it appears that women, more specifically mothers like Gertrude of Hamlet and Jocasta of Oedipus the King, are plagued by decisions that are made with good intentions, but end up destroying their lives and the lives of people around them. Women are also under the burden of strict societal expectations when it comes to the decisions they make. These two tragic plays illuminate a human being’s capacity for suffering. Gertrude and Jocasta both care deeply for their sons. However, this care unintentionally causes harm to both of the mothers and their sons. For these two women, marriage is regarded as a societal expectation. Under the societal norms of their time, they are required to marry people to preserve their kingdom. Also, in both of these tragic plays, Gertrude and Jocasta plays are largely characterized by their emotions. Lastly, it is evident that often times women inadvertently bring about the destruction and chaos that is central to the play. Jocasta and Gertrude both engage in decisions that may seem trivial, but end up being very important on a large scale.…
The mom, if I were to pick my least favourite character in the book it would be the Mom. She’s imperious and upfront “ Mom was the enforcer, always hovering, but Dad hung back a little. He thought it was important that I make my own mistakes now and then. (77)”. Yeah, I admit she’s the rock of the family If you didn’t have her then you wouldn’t be able to be balanced, but it doesn't hurt to move a little, endeavor, contemplate the answer to the question that you alway had.

A mother’s role impacts the child’s life and plays a huge part in deciding what type of person the child grows up to. Many twentieth century children’s literature demonstrates archetypes, including the mother, and how this helps the characters to succeed and find happiness. Children seek for this maternal figure if it is not found in the birth mother, or is lacking completely, as it is a natural instinct that a child relies on upon entering this world. The role of the mother figures in the children’s books; Charlotte’s Web by E.B White, The Root Cellar by Janet Lunn, and The Secret Garden by Frances Burnett, is not seen in the birth mothers of the main characters in the books, but rather in other characters who nurture and take care of them.…

The psalm twenty three speaks about how a person may feel when having God as his shepperd, and who takes care of everybody. The sermon on the mount, speeches offering religious or moral instruction, explains different descriptions to explain many points from a biblical standpoint like what it means to be happy, how to deal with problems, acquire qualities that belong to a person who believes in god and not to worry too much about everyday problems.

The word “mother” means everything to me. I remember when I was little I would always be with my mom and she would always take care of me when I got sick. She taught me how to speak, read, and write sentences; and also taught me how to be a good person. When I did something wrong, she explained to me why I can’t do that. When I have problems with friends in school and I did not know who to talk with, she was the one I could open up to and tell her how I felt. She told me how to solve these conflicts and pointed out how the conflicts started in the first place. Ever since I could remember, my mom is everything for me; doctor, teacher, friend, advisor, and many more.…
