Mothers, source of
Security for children
Sociologists believe that a healthy
personality is formed in the family under the
influence of parents, especially the mother. Women
make the future for the people of every society.
Therefore, the formation of a woman’s character is
very important.
The mother of today is the child of yesterday, who
has grown up and been raised in the warm hands of
her mother, who paved the way for raising another
generation. Psychologists say that psychologists
sympathetic security, to love and to be loved, is
what every human being seeks in her/his life. The
one who possesses these characteristics can present
his/her love to others as a gift.
Erich From said, “Every healthy human being should
be able to love him/herself first, then sacrifice
his/her love to others.” What should we do if we
want to get this security? When a child enters the
world, he/she experiences anxiety. It is the
mother’s duty to alleviate this concern. When a
child is born, the mother is considered to be the
source of nutrition, life, and love. The presence of
the mother makes the child feel calm and secure. So,
the mother, this source of life and energy, should
have a lively personality.
We should not use “love” as the only tool. For
raising children, because love is a goal not a tool.
For example , if our child breaks his/her toys, we
should not say. “I do not love you any more.”
Because this would have a bad effect on the child.
The child would be more worried about losing his/her
mother’s love than about the broken toy.
If the child’s toy is broken again, s/he would lie
bout it and not mention the broken toy. One sentence
has made the child lie and hide what has happened.
The mother should say, “I don’t like what you did,”
not “I don’t love you any more.
A child who is worried about losing maternal love
acquires bad habits and can never leave his/her
mother. How can this child grow up and become a good
independent mother of father?
