A different mother& #39;s day https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🧵" title="Thread" aria-label="Emoji: Thread">

A mother& #39;s job is to nurture and care for her children. But for some mothers a child is not a bundle of joy.

For a variety of reasons a child is just another obligation, another responsibility or a mistake.

Today is not an easy day for those children.

The photos and videos of the loving mother/child relationships highlight a different reality for them.

Sure it& #39;s not our job to be everything to everyone but today isn& #39;t easy for every family.

And here in Jamaica esp. we have too many instances of domestic violence—too many abusive parents. It& #39;s a sad fact.

So what& #39;s the point of this thread? One person& #39;s reality is not everyone& #39;s reality. One person& #39;s celebration is someone else& #39;s hell.

We don& #39;t need to know what& #39;s going on behind closed doors to be kind to each other so let& #39;s be compassionate to all.
