Be The Ideal Mother

To every child, his/her mother is the perfect creature on earth, the loveliest and the most infallible. It is not at all easy to be a role model mother. There are no hard and fast written rules on being the ideal mother or the ideal parent. The most important tip would be to understand the responsibility of instilling the best values in her child's mind and bring the child up as a confident, happy and good human being. An ideal mother is one who inculcates the best of family values in her children. She also has tons of patience to put up with the childish tantrums and makes the child feel satisfied and happy without being over-indulgent. She is the child's best friend. She is there for the child through every thick and thin.

Ideal Parent
An ideal mother is usually a mixture of the toughness of granite and softness of blossoms, the sharpness of razor and the coolness of mountain streams, the calmness of still water and the purity of untrodden snow. In one word, she is the light of her child's life. All mothers should aspire to be the role model mother for their child. The ideal mother is undoubtedly a woman more placid than nervous in temperament, more energetic than restless in habits, and with more strength of character and general good sense than specialized intellectual acquirements. No matter what occurs in the family, they need to be relaxed and able to speak with each other. Above all, there should be love. If you realize that you have the faults described here, you should be big enough to admit that you have them, and then plan for some hard work to change before it is too late. Such are the trials of a mother who trains her child for civilization and more importantly for heaven. If enough love is shown during the training period, the mom will usually be successful in parenting. As in her training, the mother needs to incorporate forbearance, longsuffering, perseverance, patience and composure.
