There is no equal to a mother’s love

While humanity and America concentrated on giving equal rights to women and people disadvantaged, something was overlooked. And for the sake of limitations of 300 words set forth herein, I will get to the point. Man will never be a woman’s equal.

Our son was tragically paralyzed three months ago. His mother has been at his side virtually every minute and literally the last three weeks. They are finally coming home on Oct. 23, and a benefit will be held at The Shanty in Wadsworth.

Of course fathers love their children as much as mothers do, but differently. This is not to say that men are less, just different. It is simply a natural thing for mothers to do because that is what is in their makeup. It is safe to say that women were cheated, in a way, when people wanted equality for women. Man will never rise to be equal to a lady, a wife and a mother.
