I Salute You, Hard-Working Mothers!

Thank you is not enough to say to those hard working mothers out there. I sympathized since it is a marvelous act of semblance of a dear individual who is striving hard for the survival of one's family. Exerting lots of effort,being determined in rearing one's children instilling good values and deeds to them and other stuffs that they are doing extraordinarily.So therefore I won't hesitate to take off my own hat to show respect to my mom and to all the hard working mothers out there for the great gratitude that they are having.

Thank you, i am a mother now with 3 kids and yes it is not easy to raise them all, while juggling a career working full time, plus trying to do most of the chores at home, at the same time also being a wife and being there for them all.. it is not easy and will never be easy but it is rewarding to see your love ones happy. As for my mom, she may never be the perfect mom but she was there for me when i fell and stumbled and she was there for our family, held our family when we were falling apart and she was still there even though my dad cheated on her. She moved on and now she is still here for me and my family especially with my kids..

It is not easy being a mother. I will say that stay-at-home moms have it hard, but I really do think that single mothers who have to work have it much harder, and I say this because my mother was a single mom who had to work two jobs, my niece is a single mother who has to work and go to Grad School online, many of my friends are single mothers who work, and many of them either have two jobs, or one job and they go to school. Raising children is not easy no matter how you look at it, but having to be a single mother (meaning the father is completely or mostly gone from the picture), and having to work, go to school and take care of children is the most difficult. I have seen so many single mothers struggle so hard to take care of their children because they can't be at home with them, and if their children have a mental health disorder (as is my case and my great-nephew's case), a physical illness (as is my case again and my friend's son's case), or trouble in school (yes, I fit into this category as well because I had trouble learning and I got bullied), then it can also make taking care of children that much more difficult. It is like adding insult to injury. Not only does the single mother have to work and go to school or work two jobs, now she has to take care of a child who has problems to top it off. I was mostly raised by my grandmother because my mother had to be the main bread winner, but when I was sick or something was going wrong, my poor mother had to drop everything and take care of me. Also, I feel bad for mothers who work or have to work and go to school because while they are away, their children are somewhere else, and the worry is constantly there. Stay-at-home moms know what is going on because they get to be at home. Also, most women I know nowadays are not stay-at-home moms because they can't afford to be. They have to go to work and/or school to help support the family. I know about the attacks on stay-at-home mothers, and I think that people attacking them is stupid because it is hard being a mother no matter how you look at it, but from personal experience, I really do think that working moms have much more of a challenge.

thanks matersfish. i forgot if you are female? and have maybe done the same. i have done the same. been for a while stay at home, then, for a while working outside. still i did spend time with my kids regardless. when you are a good mother, both ways are tiring but its what we do when we love our kids.

I don't know the right words to salute mothers who untiringly raised their kids. Taking care of kids, doing all the house works and attending other things is a tough job. Mothers are the original multi-taskers, they can do things at a time. They are super hero who never gets tired of doing same things everyday. They never get bored but their job- and they deserves all the love and respect. I agree- whoever says that being a mother is not the most noble profession must be raised by a nanny.

thank you for that. i am a working mom and i must say being a mom is a tough work. mothers are the first one who get hurt whenever our chiild is in pain. mothers sacrifice everything for the family including her career just like me, i would trade everything just to keep my son safe. so i am a proud mother! happy mylotting.

A heartfelt thanks for that! I raised 2 boys born 364 days apart. Cook, clean, iron, wash, dry, garden, shop, do the banking and bills, drive them around, help at their school, etc. a full time job and really hard. But I raised two healthy well adjusted men who are kind, charitable and hard working. We sacrificed a lot of material things so that I could do so because our kids were more important than vacations, new furniture or other stuff. It's the most important job in the world, raising the next generation. I'm glad there are people that appreciate it.

Indeed, every mother is hard-working, selfish to her children, willing do all that she can do for her children. every time i think of my mother, i always feel regret for her, while she is alive i can't do many things for her, now he has passed away, what i am doing now to her is regret, regret and regret.

Although my mother is not merely housewive, I still appreciate my mother so much. She will cook early in the morning and then prepare everything needed for her work. We were helping her washing the laundry (using a washing machine is an easy task though). At night she cooks again. So happy mother's day... in advance (in our country the day is in December)

i don't know what to say now,and i know it is weak whatever i say.just to say ,thanks my friend.thanks,i should learn to you .learn to how to think ?

my mother is not a plain housewife but she is indeed hardworking. i salute and admire her for that. it's amazing how mothers can be a multi-functional woman. they wake up early, prepares breakfast, go to work and get home early to prepare dinner and assist children with their homework and of course serve their husbands. I don't think i will be able surpass or even do what my mother has managed to do.
