Sasha talks politics

Who says the mother must be good? What is it in she that demands 'good'? She is simply woman. The mother is nothing short of her own person, sometimes indulgent of her flaws. Why must 'mother' and 'woman' be differnt than 'man' and 'father'? These are not so different. Gender and breeding play their part, but what more? The woman is the mother is the life. She cannot be good always. She is a person and she is entitled to her faults, shortcomings and life. Because she gives life, is she not also right to take it, direct it, dictate it? Her own and others. She can be a bad character, and a more interesting person.
