sayed some very negative things about Mama (On a accident). T.J. got mama fired because he went yappen his joules to the wrong people the Wallaces. Mama got fired because the school board and Mr.Granger came and saw that Mama was not teaching from the book and the book pasted over with paper. Stacey did not want to talk to T.J. because of what he did to Mama because Mama found T.J. cheating with cheat note on a test and Mama failed him. “Mama, her back straight and her eyes fixed on the men, answered, ‘Because all that’s in that book isn’t true.” (p.g 184) This quote means that Mama shows courage because she wasn’t afraid to talk back to the white men. Stacey could showed courage for Mama by he stop being friends with T.J., and Stacey could have stayed friends with T.J. but he would be taking T.J. side in stead of

No matter what actions or words a mother chooses, to a child his or her mother is on the highest pedestal. A mother is very important to a child because of the nourishing and love the child receives from his or her

Mothers are pictured as the care giver of the families and the ones who love their children unconditionally no matter the situation. They’ll do anything to support their family and raise their children right. In “The Queen of Mold” by Ruth Reichl, the mother in the story is pictured as the one who makes a meal almost out of nothing, just to provide and have something on the table for her family. Even though the food she cooks is moldy, this is how she demonstrates her motherly love.. In “Everyday Use” by Alice Walker, the mother is portrayed at first as an over excited mother waiting for her over achieving daughter Dee. As the story progresses the excitement for the daughter starts to go away and her motherly love towards Dee becomes complicated because Dee thinks she is greater and much smarter than the rest. Both of the stories depict complex motherhood, in Reichl story her mother’s love becomes complicated when she cooks food for the guest and her daughter tries to save the guest from being killed, while by the end of Walker story she only has love for the one daughter that has always been by her side and that’s Maggie.

Although Mary Duane is freed physically from the mother, she often encounters trials and temptations that threaten to make her become her mother. Mary Duane almost fails as the heroine because she is the nanny for David Merridith’s children and David attempts to seduce her in her attic bedroom. Mary is tempted to repeat the actions that her mother made and thereby become her mother when David Merridith visits her to draw her as he watches her undress.

Mother, Mother Earth Mothers are symbols of care and love in our daily lives. Our mother and the mother before them care and love their children in the same way. Without the care of our mothers, what will we be like? Savages or maniacs; our mothers align us with the right path of life. They provide love for us, they catch us before we fall, they protect us from the greatest danger even if they do not have the ability.

A mother is the first touch, voice and sight a baby has when he or she is born. They rely on their mother to provide them with a safe environment, food and comfort. Being a mother comes with great responsibility and a life long job that the work gets harder every day. Although I myself am not a mother, I have seen this job played out from my own mother who provides her children with a great life. Some mothers are not ready for this job, yet selfishly still choose to keep their children because they are too proud to allow someone else provide their baby with the life they deserve. Child abandonment is a ever rising epidemic not only in The United States, but all around the world. Child abandonment affects the mother, but more importantly,

Mothers are typically seen as kind, loving, and nurturing, at least in a perfect world, that’s how they are. Rather, in the real world many of us wish that is how all mothers are. Various situations can lead to a woman to be too mothering. It is a factor that transcends real life. This conflict causing dynamic is very prevalent in numerous stories, films, and plays. Two plays where it is shown in significance are Machinal and The Glass Menagerie. In both cases, the actions taken by the mother roles in the shows, resulted in some of the character’s roles ending in unfortunate events of some sort.

A mother can impact lives greatly. Could you imagine growing up without a mother? You can either be very lucky with a mother that cares for you or be deprived of that sense of love from a mother figure. It is inhumane to destroy any kind of maternal bond because mothers are not people to depend on, but are people to make depending not required.

Moms are wonderful people. In “Cronus(Saturn)” by Berens E.M. Cronus ate his children because he didn’t want them to over throw him like he did to his dad. But ,Rhea, Cronus wife / sister, didn’t give their last baby to Cronus. She wanted to save him. Like wise in ‘The Lightning Thief’ by Rick Riordan, Percy Jacksons mom kept Percy safe from the monsters.

It will not be the least hardship to me; without you, even heaven is hell” (Vālmīki, 698). Presented in Beowulf, one can conclude that a mother’s role is to teach her children to become a strong leader when her child reaches independent hood. A poet from Beowulf described a mother’s grief after losing her child on the battlefield during his performance to the hero, “She, the woman in shock, waylaid by grief [...] ordered her own son’s body be burnt with Hnaef’s, the flesh on his bones to sputter and blaze” (Beowulf, 914). By the mother ordering her son’s cremation, she accepted his death and knew she had done all she could to encourage her son and allow him to become as strong as he became in his lifetime. Another display of a mother desiring the best for her offspring in Western literature would be when Grendel’s mother sought the revenge of Beowulf after he slayed her son (Beowulf, 908).

The first footsteps we've ever taken are the ones that have imprinted the inside of our mothers' stomachs. Mothers don't just give birth to us, they give us a life to live. Now, some might say mothers are supposed to give birth; it's a natural process that is their duty. It's physically straining to have a child, but it takes a true warrior to raise a child. It is often forgotten how much they continuously provide for us and how many sacrifices they make. My mother has been my inspiration, not because of her title as my mother but because she is the prime example of a what I call a hero.

Finally, when her husband becomes angry and starts to scolds her, she chooses to endure it. Although she knows that her job is no less valuable than her husband’s job, she does not refute him. Her choice avoids many unnecessary quarrels between her and her husband. She is the first and only person to say, “I love you.” (Gilb,360) in the entire story. She loves her husband and her family deeply. According to a research in psychology today, Barton Goldsmith mentions that “Mothers are the emotional backbones of the family.” (Goldsmith, P6) Obviously, she provides the holding place for everyone’s feelings and does her best to keep them from being and getting hurt.

Being a mother is to support your children all the way even if they choose to take the road you don’t want them too. Mother’s play a responsible role in children’s health, education and complete wellbeing. In the article, Mother Inferior? Hanna Rosin, the author talks about her mothering style, which is the complete opposite of Amy Chua from The Battle Hymn of The Tiger Mother. Hanna Rosin would allow everything that Amy Chua wouldn’t allow for her children. Her idea of raising children were different, she wanted her child to be happy in fact she never pressured her child into doing anything. Hanna Rosin had some good points; however, some of her points I cannot agree with her. I agree with Hanna Rosin when she said

My mother has taught me to be courageous and always stand up for what I believe in. Every day, when I think about all that she went through while raising us, I really am astonished. She has basically given up her life for us making sure that we be successful in everyway. I can remember her letting me try out for club basketball when I was in sixth grade, the money didn’t even daunt her she always found away. However, when someone hurts anyone of us she has no problem standing up for us. I can

A mother is someone who can take the place of all others but no one can take the place of her. There are many different definitions you could use to describe your mother. My mother, Pam Krull, fits every one of those. Today I decided to pick the three that I thought was most important to me. I admire and aspire to be like my mother because of how supportive, how selfless, and how loving she is.
