Mother’s Day Advice

Advice for stepmoms on Mother’s Day:
*What you feel in your heart, and how you conduct yourself as a woman who plays an important role in the life of a child, is far more important than what society (or Hallmark) may, or may not, recognize. What you do matters.

* To childless or child-free stepmoms: Do not let your self-worth or your identity be defined by, or dependent upon, your maternal status. This weekend and always, you are enough.

* If you’re feeling alone or lonely: Use the day to reach out and recognize a woman in your life who has made a difference. Mother-figures, mentors and role models are blessings in any woman’s life. If you have one, tell her. We promise that doing so will make you feel better.

* Remember that even if no one else tells you or acknowledges you this weekend, you are an incredible woman. To accept a job that offers little security, few accolades and no promise of unconditional love – while also managing the inherent complexities of stepfamily life – proves that you are strong, brave and AMAZING. Revel in the quiet knowledge that you do the right thing, because it’s the right thing to do.
