Fifty years ago, motherhood looked very different. My own mother was present around the clock, managing everything without the resources we have today. For instance, back then, cooking was a much more involved process. There were no Pinterest boards to browse for recipes; today, a simple search yields hundreds of options, and apps can generate weekly menus and shopping lists. We even have smart appliances that can cook a gourmet meal with minimal effort.
The dedication of mothers in those days was truly monumental. They devoted themselves entirely to their homes and children, facing challenges that modern technology now alleviates—like self-cleaning robots and other smart appliances.
In today’s world, while technology has given us more time, it has also introduced new challenges, particularly with social media. This double-edged sword has simplified many aspects of our lives but also raised concerns about its impact on our children.
For an insightful discussion on modern motherhood and the role of social media, don’t miss this episode featuring Sara Rosenthal, creator of NaranXadul, one of the largest communities offering valuable content on parenting.
As we celebrate this special date, let’s take a moment to honor the mothers of the past for their monumental contributions and tireless efforts. Their dedication laid the groundwork for the advancements we benefit from today. At the same time, we celebrate the modern mothers who continue to innovate, elevating their lives and the lives of their children to new heights.
Happy Mother’s Day to all!
