Relationship between a mother and her child

The most special relationship in the world is the one between a mother and her child. A mother loves her child without any expectations. It cannot be compared to anything else in the world. She nurtures and nourishes her child. She shields him/her from all the difficulties in the world. From the moment her baby is born, she knows that he/she is her responsibility and that she needs to be there for him/her throughout. There is no limit to the amount of affection she feels towards her child. Only a mother understands her child in and out. That is the reason why children feel comfortable sharing their issues and problems with their mothers. She listens, understands, and provides a solution for his/her problem/s. A mother is an irreplaceable part of a child’s life and she deserves to be treated with love and respect.
