Now please do not get me wrong. The last thing I want to do is offend working mothers. I realize that some mothers have to work. And I realize that these mothers love their children deeply. What I am trying to say though is simply this.
Mothers are the single most important person in the lives of their children.
When a mom is not there, children will suffer from that loss, particularly children between the ages of 1 to 5. I believe that God has gifted women with an incredible capacity to nurture. In many ways I believe this gift makes women, man's moral superior. For example, my wife can play with our five year old, Tom, for hours each day. This provides for him enormous pleasure and stimulation.
