>>108770984Loving and caring are only part of the equation. To be a good mother you need to have the whole package. She needs to have a lot of willpower, knowledge, foresight, intelligence, etc. It's not enough to simply ensure your kids continue breathing. The one thing that a parent can give their child that no other person in the world can give them is a healthy body. To ensure they end up with a healthy body as an adult the parent can't be complacent. They need to know how to balance positive and negative motivation to create good habits that will ensure the child can thrive in the environment they'll be living in.
Most parents lack in several areas. Too many women think they're good mothers simply because their kids love them; as if that is all that matters. Children living in abject filth and starving every other night can still love their parents. What your child thinks of you isn't the objective measure of parental success. Prisons are filled with murderers that love their mothers.
