Mother's Day..... A feminist Issue??

| 1 Comment | 0 TrackBacks

As mother's day is quickly approaching this Sunday I ponder back to how we celebrated mother's day as children. My mother had always been the one doing the cooking and cleaning at dinner time. On Mother's Day my dad would contribute a lot more. He would typically be in charge of the grill as we always grilled out for her and help us take care of the cleaning so my mom did not have to do anything. This day was a very happy and loving day for mother's and where they truly see appreciation for all they do. This is one day of celebration though, I feel mother's deserve more praise. It is always an enjoyable and well deserving family day. Out of the 365 days a year should mothers deserve more than just one day devoted to their praise?? What are your thoughts on this?

To be totally honest, I was just always far too upset that there was no "Kid's Day" to think much about what was happening during Mothers' Day in my first 9 or so years of life....

But I feel that mothers deserve the credit they get on this day, and so do fathers on their given day for their role they played in raising you as a child.
