A Mother's love

I saw an article posted on Facebook this week which rather intrigued me. It described how recent research has shown that the brain of a child who is raised without a Mother's love and is abused can be highly underdeveloped especially compared to the brains of his peers who grew up in stable homes with loving and doting parents.

 I find it curious that something so important as brain development is dependent on emotional stability. Mothers are so crucial to child development, and without them children can become emotionally scarred. Not to mention Mothers who abuse their children can cause so much damage to their children, which is oftentimes irreversible.

 The absence of a Mother and love can have as great an effect on children as a Mother who is always there and does everything she can for her children. 

Don't let society tell you that Motherhood is unimportant. We need an emotionally stable generation to take the lead

  1. I wonder what the impact of fathers is, if it's the same?
