With current controversy about how women really would rather be a mother and homemaker by a very derogatory personality, I wanted to set the record straight.
Being a mother is not a job. There are tasks involved to run a household like laundry, food, cleaning etc that are done whether you are a mother or not. Depending on the age of the child and your relationship with the Dad, the chores can be cumbersome and overwhelming at times.
I had a 43 year career as a Social Worker. I retired from my work life. A job.
Motherhood is life long. It is a life long relationship. You do not retire from being a mother like you retire from a job.
It can be said the relationship with each child can be challenging and rewarding. Unlike a job it is 24/7.
I dislike hearing being a mother is the most rewarding job you will ever have. No, no, no.
However it may one of the most rewarding relationships you will ever have.
Changes as each child ages.
When your children leave home, the relationship prevails.
The proverbial questions? Why do men not get the label that being a Dad is the most important job they every had?
