Since i get married and have child i can't take to buy things for myself. I'm satisfy when i buy things for my child. Why do mother prefer to buy needs of her child than hers?

all mothers are like this. we want the best for out kids and we always put her needs before ours. just one advice though, (if you don't mind)... don't buy too much clothes because babies grow out of them fast.

I know how you feel. I'm the same way. I think that it's because I want what's best for my kids. And I don't think that I'm the only mom who's like this. I think that it's something that's normal.

I think it's the mother instinct.

We want to put our child/ren needs first. This is how it should be. It's alright for us to get ourselves things every now and then put it is important that we put our children first and get them what they need and at times a want or two.

It feels nicer to buy for my kids than it does for myself. I love buying sweet looking girls clothes for my daughter. I am extra lucky because my sister gives me some girls' clothing that my niece has outgrown. I wish to find some clothes my son will like.

It's simple natural human nature. It is true that mother's love to their child is the purest one. Nothing can replace it. Evry mother considers her child to be the best and always want to see them happy. For children, a mother can sacrifice anything that no one other can do.

I am also a mother and I can relate to this. Mother prefers to buy things for her kids than herself because of love. When we love someone, we often forget ourselves.

I still enjoy being things for myself. A lot of parents just don't have the heart to say no to buying something for there children and some people just like to shop because there parents that will spend not only money n there kids but themselves. I don't like shopping but I do get things for myslef some times and only buy things for my kids that they need other wise I try not to spend the money at all. I'm string with putting my foot down.

Hi, mother is a treasure of love to her child. She ready to sacrifice anything for the child. She always take care of her child. She becomes happy with every movement of child. She likes to look at her child with new clothes. She doesn't want anyhting for her. She only wants to shower her child with more and more love.

That is a true example of the strength of a mother's love. We do it because we love our child , he/she is more important than others even than ourselves. This kind of love, I think it's special. Mother always gives her child love without asking for return. How deep mother love is!

It is because you know that you love your child. It is one of the reasons why we have to be thankful about life.
