Hats off to your Mom Dwight. Every good mom deserves a proper salute, be they biological, or adoptive. The best resource any culture has is its moms. How does the saying go...."The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world".
That could be apart of the problem the devaluing of motherhood. I have heard it said in a snarky tone "shes a stay at home mom".
You see when a group of people are abused long enough the back lash is devistating. If men had loved their wives rather than abuse them and take them for granted we may have had a different out come.
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.
