The role of woman in life can’t be
over emphasized. Her womb houses her fellow creature for nine months and, under
a laborious process, delivers him. She nurtures him until he matures to tread his own path. He is very close to the mother than to the father. In the light of this, he is easily influenced by the mother. Much of what he learns or does is credited to the mother.

A good mother transforms her home
into paradise for her family and other people with whom she comes into contact.
Under a good woman, the wider environment blossoms in all endeavours. A female
child develops into a woman. The entire society will swim in an ocean of bliss
if the female child is brought up responsibly. Otherwise, sorrow and
catastrophe will be the order of the day
To bring up the female child in
the most responsible manner several factors are inextricably involved. As the
first social unit she comes into contact with, the family sets the ball
rolling. Sexual promiscuity which exists in some families today should stop so
that the child will not have the impression that it is the normal way of life.
The couple should keep their marriage vows by being faithful to each other
under any situation. Also bitter quarrels that can degenerate into flexing of
muscles should be avoided.
