The best thing a mother can do to be a good mother is to love her child, and let that child know every day that she loves him/her. You teach them right from wrong, you teach them morals, and how to be a good person in general. Teach them that people are people, no matter the color of skin, to look past the color and see the person for who they are. Be there to hold their hand when they have problems. Be the kind of mom that will let them have their own thoughts and opinions, and teach them to respect others' opinions, even if they don't agree.
Teach them to respect others for their differences, and teach them to respect themselves.

I hope that I am a good mother. My kids are grown now, and the things I gave to you, were things that I tried to teach my children. They are both grew up to be beautiful, well rounded and caring people.
Congratulations and good luck with your little girl. I am sure you will do a fantastic job.*S*

Dear bohemianheart. What a fntastic response! How beautifully you stated the role of a mother in your reply. You said everything in just one paragraph that stated the essence of what a mother should strive to be. I am so happy that your children have grown up to be caring people. I am sur ethat you are so proud of them. I agree with you - love is everything. That young mother will gradually begin to trust her own instincts with her baby. It is always difficult with the first child.

How old is your child now? Is she of he still a baby or grown up? Anyway no matter how is the age. Being a good mother is not easy to do(according to my opinion) because it brings a lot of responsibility from the new born up to their adulthood. Let us begin when they are a newborn, first you have to nurse the baby and every minute you have to attend their needs. It will not last but to increase our attention to them when they reach the school age. And so on. While they are growing we need to guide them into their adolescence and in here much attention we give to them. Guiding our child when they are growing up is to much responsible for us to attend to. Being a good mother to them is not speaking of the money they need only. As goes by you will know step by step the ways on how to be a good mother. You can use your instinct as a mother to your kids. We are gifted by this from God.

Congratulations on your first baby. I bet she must be a cute little baby. I am happy to know that you are determined to be a good mother and so anxious about taking care of your baby. I understand how it feels like having someone to take care of. You must have a lot of love now. Good for you!
I think it would be natural thing for every mother to feel anxious when she is having her first baby. You just have to bear in mind that your baby needs attention from you all the time. She needs to be fed with milk once in two hours when he is just born up to until 1 or months I think.
You have to bathe her, clothe her and feed her. Give her love and accompany her to sleep. In other words you have to sacrifice in order to be a good parent. I wish you good luck to both of you.

Thank You! Yes, she is very cute. And the reason why I'm so determined to be a good mother is because I want my child to grow with love... for her parent and especially I want her to be God fearing person.
Thank you for the knowledge,I will also apply your knowledge to my child.
