Today I'm getting together with family to celebrate my Mother
and my Grandmother.
Some interesting reading for Mother's Day involving Mother's role in education and childhood from all across the globe:
The Heavyweight Girls of Manipur, by Thingnam Anjulika Samom, an article that links a mother's social status and literacy to a decrease in feeding girls less than their brothers during food scarcity in India.
Building Better Kids by Kevin Drum, a Mother Jones article that discusses the link between a child's academic achievement and the education of the child's mother.
The Importance of Tang Dynasty Mothers to the Family Education by Haiwen Guo and Zuoliang Wang.
Mother's Education and Child Health: Is There a Nurturing Effect? by Yuyu Chen and Hongbin Li.
