Now, I’d be the first to admit that women, and especially mothers, get a bad rap!  They’re excellent at “multi-tasking” for their responsibilities are as many as they are varied: cooking, housekeeping, child-bearing, and child-rearing which, in itself, involves disciplining as well as nurturing.  Oh yes, a mother may be the ruler of the household, but she does all these things and more without adequate compensation, praise or adoration.
