Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders lately implied that Vice President Kamala Harris can’t absolutely perceive motherhood as a result of she by no means gave beginning to a toddler. These feedback convey a condescending angle towards ladies who should not have youngsters, can’t have youngsters for medical causes, have adopted youngsters or, like Harris, are stepmothers.
Each lady has their very own capability for maternal care and love. Not all beginning moms nurture their youngsters. Many have abused them. Alternatively, many ladies who should not have their very own youngsters — adoptive moms and stepmothers — are caring and compassionate, displaying maternal love and instincts.
Due to this fact, I feel that Governor Huckabee-Sanders ought to both additional clarify herself or provide a proper apology to those different ladies inside our society.
