• April 25, 2024

The maternity It is a constant invitation to develop and grow together with our little ones. The path that each child draws is something similar to a path with wonderful landscapes and also wild slopes that in some stretches demand a greater effort.

However, the feeling of guilt , is a traveling companion on that road. It is certainly not a comfortable companion, but it is inevitable because it comes in various forms, either by refusing, hiding, becoming great gifts for our children or on vacations and tuitions that exceed our possibilities.

Do all mothers feel guilty?

Yes, because both those who work and those who stay at home are women and mothers, that is, the process of becoming a mother begins long before conception: in the children's game, in the development of adolescence, in the desire of having a child and in the pregnancy . 

Guilt is a feeling that is built from our own relationships and ideas. If we manage to make it conscious, it can help us improve our experience in maternity .

To be conscious mothers requires the audacity to accept that everything we are up to now, we know, know and assure represents the tip of the iceberg and that there is deeper and more complex knowledge and knowledge.

Overcome this negative feeling!

If you feel guilty or you have doubts that you are a "good mom", you only need to carry out these steps to improve the experience of the maternity :

1. Recognize your virtues.
2. Pay attention to what makes you "the best mom".
3. Learn to look with other eyes.
4. Change "feel guilty" to "be responsible".

Remember that guilt does not help you make good decisions. Better take distance and try to see the situation objectively. Decide what is best for your family and take responsibility.

If you consider it necessary, seek support, that is, ask your partner to actively participate in raising their children, make decisions together. In addition, establish networks with other women who share the maternity , talk with specialists.

Finally, you can make the feeling of guilt a catalyst to build a better family, have better relationships, strengthen bonds and give children the chance to be and grow in freedom.
