The mother is the first one to be hurt and the mother's wound Our mother is the first protector of all,they are the first one to rescue us when we need some help,they are like a shield to a firing arrows that almost hit us,because we are close to their hearts. Today,I have seen in my eyes a mother who cried in sadness for her daughter who commit mistakes in her marriage.She talks with full of emotions and her eyes are tears like a falling grains of rains while she keep holding on it.As a mom,I feel that way when I knew that my kids have shown undesirable traits towards her friends,I'm the first one to be embarrassed.If people see a person who did awful things in public or in the society,they will asked"who is this daughter ?Is she not been taught good moral values by her mother?I often heard it,have you heard it too with your neighbor ,or friends? Mothers have the responsibility to teach their children in good moral values,and they really are doing it,(maybe there are some few who are not responsible enough),but as far as I know,majority of mom's are loving,caring and took care of their children.And as we grow older,and have separate lives from our parents,their guardianship doesn't end,even if we think mature but every now and then,we always looked back how did our moms raised us. I would like to tell everyone to love our "mom's",to the best that we can.In my whole life,I undergo a lot of trials,failed decisions in life,I am blessed by being loved by a mother.Who accepts my flaws,understand my weaknesses, never despise me,despite of everything. **Supportive even if others don't** I would like to recall,the mom of Will Smith,when he did slapping Chris Rock face on the Oscar Awards night.Her mom has an interview,and she said,that she will support Will all the way,and said"I am proud of Him being Him".Her mom is really her great fans,despite of everything". I remember when I want to enroll in college after finishing my high school days,my father won't let me,but my mother was my first supporter and encourager to keep going,even if I did not end my school so well and never had a good job,I never heard her blaming game for doing so,instead she still inspire me not to stop doing I like. **Now let's talk about mother's wound** I just read this from browsing online,and I'd like to state few things about this.The above article was a mirror of a loving mother,supportive and emotionally mom to her children. But in this point in time,it talks about the wounds that both mother and the children can suffer. What are the kinds of wound that some kids have experiencing ? When kids are not emotionally connected to their parents,the kids are well provided with their needs like money,food and shelter but their mom are working and had always a busy day. When kids didn't catch up with parents regularly from breakfast,lunch and dinner. When children are often longing for their parents approval and appreciation but they don't have it,as much as they are giving their all,it seems not enough. When children didn't have security that their mother will always be there to support them despite all of the struggles in life that they are going through . When they don't have a proper conversation everytime they met and always ended up in argument. Undeniably,there are some children whose experiencing it,every now and then.As I was watching some shows and tv programs,sometimes I cried when I see a daughter or son whose crying when they are asked about their moms.There was since a lady who is already grown up ,but she could able to relate with her mother,because she grows without a mom,and they just met when she was already a legal age.Her mom was working abroad,and her contract is often extended. Although she said that she had enough materially but she said,that she don't know how it feels to have a mother.And it's not only one sided because her mother feel the same.And this wound might take a long time to heal,takes a lot of effort and commitment to connect again. I felt mother's who are working day and night and even the moms who works abroad pays a lot of sacrifices like separation from their kids,I know that they are hurt in this set up,but sometimes they have no choice. But I can't relate with moms who just disregard and neglect their responsibilities as a mom and prioritize themselves.Yes,they exist,I see it in my eyes.They were not aware if their kids will bear wounds in a lifetime. **Writer's end statement** Children are great blessing to us as a mom,it's our privilege to nurture our children to the best that we can.They must grow in love and care for the sake of a good family relationship that will last forever. I salute all the moms in this platform who are passionate to taking care of their kids even if it means to sacrifice. Until here guys. I hope everyone have a good day.

I couldn't agree more sis:) mothers will always be the one who gets hurt first whenever someone tried to hurt their child. But unfortunately not all children were lucky to have that kind of love from their mother. Some choose to leave them behind and choose themselves first.
That's true sis,that's why on my subtopic in this article which I talk about mother's wound,it's the wound that mother's who didn't do their part in nurturing their children which gives wound to a kid for a long time of a lifetime sis.
Moms are worthy to celebrating for. ❤️
Yes , no regrets being mom.
