Mother's Day

Like many other countries, we too definitely observe this day. We have huge responsibility towards our mothers. But, many of us still do not understand the significance of motherhood. If we could understand it, then why is a female child still unwanted ? Why a mother is tortured to death for the “guilt” of giving birth to a female child? It is also shocking that while killing the wife for dowry, a person forgets that his wife is also the mother of a child. I also do not understand why does a son become eager to send his mother to an old home? Throughout the whole life, a mother runs after her children. Why can't we look after them in their old age? There are many people living abroad who cannot manage time to come back to their motherland to visit their mothers. There are also men who do not hesitate to shift his mother from bedroom to storeroom or corridor. Last but not the least, it would be great if we could get a government holiday on this day like many other occasions.
