A Real Mother

If we teach children from a young age what positive parenting looks like, it can help break patterns of abuse and neglect.

My book, “A Real Mother,” is inspired by the love for my son and my desire to define what constitutes a real mother. I am passionate about children’s rights, I feel that raising a child is a privilege, and that every child deserves an upbringing free from abuse and neglect. In return, a healthy upbringing contributes to a healthier society.

My book, “A Real Mother,” is inspired by the love for my son and my desire to define what constitutes a real mother. I am passionate about children’s rights, I feel that raising a child is a privilege, and that every child deserves an upbringing free from abuse and neglect. In return, a healthy upbringing contributes to a healthier society.

Given my experience in raising a child and all that implies…

I clearly feel that the person who makes a lifelong commitment to raising a child, in a healthy and loving way, is the real mother. Since children, for the most part, are shaped by their parents, it is never too early for a child to learn and read about some of the many things that go into being a mother. I hope to be a voice for the many women who have the experience and privilege of raising a child.

This book is my expression of how I view motherhood.
