Indeed a great post for guidance and counseling. Reading your post makes me reflect if I myself make a good mother or example for my kids. Way back when I was single I use to think if someday I can be a good mother to my children or an example for good (and it scares me a lot_ what if I fail??) And now being a mother still scares me if I do things rightly for my kids though I was trying so hard to be one for them to grow and mold them into a better person (good for everybody).. @bigbear I really love your post and the way you stated it I'd love to copy paste it on my notes or make a journal.. great advice is inside and no regret being here in steemit 'coz everyday as I go to feeds I learn a lot.  Thank you so much for such a wonderful and useful post. Highly appreciated.
