That is why it is important that we learn and we are taught to get out of our comfort zone.

Our vision of the world is greatly influenced by our home and what is taught to us. However, one should realize that when we are growing up, it is our responsibility to take care of ourselves. Even when one has their own children, it is important to teach them how to be honest, love, care, and understand without sacrificing their own values or stepping on other people. Sometimes, that is the key to allow the child to develop beautifully.

Mothers’ Impact To The Kids

Posted by Martha – December 12, 2012

031 mothers impactMother’s impact to their kids is really powerful. They don’t just raise kids to become good leaders in the future. They don’t just provide them their basic needs such as food, clothing and shelter. Yes, mothers are most of the time left at home to take care of the kids. But, the world isn’t as simple as before. Now, the cost of living is very expensive. If the father cannot afford to provide everything just because his salary isn’t enough then the mother should do something. What do you think is the best thing to do? The mom can decide to engage in a mini-business wherein she can earn extra cash for the family’s needs. She can put up a little fruit stall, make her own portraits, sell goods, accept laundry, or even work away from home. This is why other moms prefer to work even if they are not with the kids. But, as much as possible, they want their little ones to be with them. They find ways. These women are not just to take care of the children especially when their partners are not around. Don’t you know that they have the greatest impact to the kids when it comes to their beliefs, philosophies, attitude, and dreams? Kids are really attached to their moms because they are their number one idols. This is why mothers need to be more than 100% careful with what they say, what they do, what they feel, and what they want their kids to become.

Moms do their best to raise their kids. They want nothing but the best for them. They want nothing but to see their kids as productive and settled in the future. In many ways, they finance schooling, buy healthy foods, offer them clothes for good, treat them during birthdays and the like. The kind of mother you are will have an impact to your kids. In what way do you think your character and beliefs will affect them? If you used to be caring and thoughtful to the kids then for sure, they’ll do the same. If you give importance to every school activity, little achievement and weekend then they’ll grow seeing the big importance of spending quality time with the people they love. If you are strict but you admit your faults when needed will make them think that it is not wrong to commit mistakes once admitted. As what we used to say, mother’s knows best. This is real.

When it comes to the character of the kids, what they show off to others are the things they have learned at home. A child learns so many things at home. His ABCs, her moves, his emotions, his beliefs, his attitude towards the realities of life, and more can be traced back to his very home. For sure, her mom is her greatest idol. He tries to follow the recipes made in the kitchen, speak the way his mama did, think just like her, and even models the good behaviors. For starters, teach your kids how to become responsible. Tell them that you can’t be with them all throughout their lives. Give them responsibilities you think they can perform better. Having a good job is cool. Now, when you bring your kids sometimes at the workplace, don’t act negatively. Let them see how rewarding it is to own a job and get paid.

Mothers are often strict and good in handling finances. Yes, we work to earn. But, there are still other reasons. At their very young age, kids should know the right connection between work and cash. They should be taught how to save enough and spend right. See what can a mother do to her kids?

A Mother’s Impact To Their Children If They Don’t Have Time For Them

Posted by Martha – September 13, 2012

Do you know that mothers have a great impact to their children’s lives? One of the top responsibilities of a mother is to look after and take care of their children. They need to secure their daily needs like food, shelter, health, and etc. But things can go differently and could cause a bad impact to children if the mother will be too busy with something else that may end up them not having enough time for their children. Based on reports and studies, one of the reasons why children trust their friend more than their parents is because their mother is barely at home, or in some circumstances, their mother is not interested on what their children is trying to tell them. Usually, this case normally happens to working moms, especially if they are single moms. Moms who work to raise their kids may not have more time to bond with their kids. Most of the time they are not around when their children needs them. This creates a gap in the relationship between the mother and their children. Trust will also become an issue in the future because if mothers are not always there for their kids when they need her, children will no longer trust them and will be dependent on other people like their friends.

Other children may rebel against their parents by causing trouble in the neighborhood, or doing something bad just to get the attention of their parents or mother. They may drop out of school, do drugs, get into different vices, or get into gangs. This could be one of the mothers impact to their children if they don’t find time for their children. Most parents especially working mothers think that if they work and just provide the temporal needs of their children it’s already okay, but actually it’s not. Mothers should always find time to talk to their children no matter how busy and stressful they are from work. Children always need a mother beside them to take care of them, support them, listen to them, and love them. This may not be easy tasks to do and it’s not an easy thing to be a mother but everything will be paid off once you see the impact on your children. On the other hand, if mothers find time to bond with their children even just once week, their children will see the effort that she exerts and they will appreciate that. They might even help you relieve your stress by comforting you in a form of hugging and kissing you.

Mothers’ impact could be both positive and negative depending on the actions of the mothers. If mothers give importance to their children, their children will also give importance to the things that they do. Their children will understand their situation more and will even help them get through their life. Children will not do things that can hurt the feeling of their mothers if they understand the situation of their mother, and if the children feel that their mother is doing all she can to support them in every aspect of their lives. They will not cause trouble that could embarrass their parents. They may take their studies seriously so when they graduate they could find a good paying job and help their moms. So, always remember that good actions always give good impact and results. It may not be that easy but I know it will all be worth it. So, if you are a mother who is raising your children alone, make sure that you do all your best you can to provide their needs and be there for your children when they need you especially in times of trouble.

Advantages Of Being An Older Mom

Posted by Martha – June 11, 2012

Maturity plays a vital part in becoming a mother. Emotional, mental and physical preparations are necessary in assuming the challenging role in motherhood. Some people would also suggest that age is also an important factor especially in conceiving a child. Although no one has prescribed yet a certain age for motherly roles, some medical experts would say that a woman must be at least 27 years of age or higher even higher than that.

Early pregnancy is not a rare case these days. People find it rather acceptable whenever they see young ladies with a baby in arms or walking side by side with a child on the streets or in malls. Yet, for some women who got pregnant let’s say at the age of 16, regret is still the recurring feeling every time she makes a rewind of her life. She would probably think of the days when she is supposed to be in school attending classes rather than nursing with her child or enjoying night parties and social gatherings instead of staying up late changing baby’s diapers.  Truly, time shortens and opportunity narrows shortens when one becomes a mother. Priorities and outlook change as responsibilities become numerous. And so, if being a young mother has bittersweet consequences, does that mean that being an older mom is more advantageous?

There are many advantages of being an older mom. For example, if a woman decided to marry by the time she reaches the age of 30, a stable job or successful career is already expected of her. This does not mean that being financially stable is now a measure of one’s capability to parenthood. It only suggests that this aspect cannot be ignored since raising a child can be very expensive. Thus, when a mother has sufficient funds or savings, she has something to incur in times when her child is physically ill or any sort of emergency. Another advantage for older moms is that they already possess the qualities of a mature adult such as sense of responsibility, patience, and being decisive when face with important choices. So it follows then that a mature mom is more patient in disciplining a child and would always hold herself accountable for every action or wrong doing her child commits. An older mom is usually an example of good conduct and morals towards her children since she have grown wiser over the years of good and bad experiences.

Is There Such A Thing As Criteria For Being The Best Mother?

Posted by Martha – June 7, 2012

Motherhood is a noble call. That is the belief of most people in the traditional society. The success of a woman is measured as to how many children she’s going to have in this lifetime and on how she manages to keep her home spec and span. Once these things are achieved, people would acclaim you as the perfect wife, a natural homemaker and the best mother a child could ever have. Because of this belief, women who had lived without children felt a sudden inferiority and pity towards themselves. Some suffered depression due to the fact that they are never going to have the chance of bringing off-springs into this world.

Now that people are living in a dynamic and growing society, it appears that the conventional view on the roles of men and women has changed.  Humans grew open-minded as the demands of life increased. If the old tradition believes that to be the best mother,  a woman should stay with her kids at home, the modern women believes that being the best mother means that you sacrifice all your efforts and resources for the sake of a good life of your children in the near future.

Working mothers are everywhere. In fact, top executives and successful business tycoons are often women. Their time is usually consumed not in the home but in their offices, their workplaces and during field meetings. Some young mothers raise their children by themselves.  Due to acceptable reasons such as being widowed, handicapped partners, and bitter consequence of divorce. As a result, they take double jobs while shouldering all the social and financial responsibility of a single parent. Multitasking becomes the means of survival. These mothers can hardly do housekeeping or wash up their children and be put to bed. Everything seems to be a mess. So the question is, can people actually put criteria for being the best mother despite their varied circumstances? Could they possibly measure the amount of sacrifice of one mother over the other? The answer could be an agreeable “NO”.

No matter what humanity believes on what it takes to be a best mother, the most important thing to think about is what these mothers feel and do to offer their children the best things in this world. Motherhood is not simply a laborious task or a mere responsibility. Motherhood is what one decided to become regardless of what might happen along the way.
