How churches can honor mothers without alienating the childless - The Washington Post
'Parks was raised in the church, married in the church and went first to her church upon her arrest. '
'We honor women who are mothers by recognizing just how singular and significant that particular role is. '
'And we honor women who aren’t mothers by recognizing that a woman doesn’t have to be a mother to contribute meaningfully to the world. '
'As a woman who desired children but was unable to have them, I want the church to honor mothers in many ways, not just by handing out carnations on Mother’s Day. '
'First, saying that all women are mothers minimizes the significance of, well, actual mothers. '

We all make decisions.
