Some people feel that you can’t compare the love a mother has for her child to the love a father could feel for him.
They say that a woman’s life changes, her body changes, and she sacrifices every little nutrient she has, to offer to the baby. What they don’t understand is that a mother and father’s type of love can be different, never inferior.
Those people don’t understand that the man’s body also transforms, and his mind will never be the same again.
They do not understand that, while the mother is devoted 24/7 to taking care of her children and helping them survive, the father is devoted in body and soul in turn, to help them both so that, in this struggle, they do not lack anything. The mother starts her battle: to be the best mom in the world.
Father starts his battle – to take care of them. And so begin the broad working days, nights at night looking for better alternatives to build a better future, mental and even physical absences, betting everything to work, because deep down you know that, at that time, it is the best way she finds to combat her fears.
Because being a parent entails the same goal: the mother cares eternally for her children, and the father cares eternally for his family. Some people don’t understand that, within parenthood, there is no competition. There is only love and teamwork.
