I think that is a great way to approach relationships.
I think it is impossible for people to believe that a mother is anything less than a saint. That somehow merely being able to procreate infuses a woman with this warrior persona that would sacrifice her very life to protect her child. That she becomes a fountain of unconditional love. The thought that a mother could raise her children with profound neglect unable to see her children as anything more than an unending supply of emotional support for her unquenchable neediness is unfathomable to most.
