I think the answer – after many attempts and much struggle – is that you don’t. As good as they get, the mother-child relationship is a complicated, wild beast. It’s impossible to fit in the space of a few paragraphs and a single column. Thank goodness this is not a Mother’s Day issue. (That’s for next year, then.)

At the beginning of May, Blue Moon Group launched a new type of washing liquid called Prime Series to embrace this year’s Mother’s Day, the 21st Century Business Herald reported. “In the past, Mum used a large bottle of laundry liquid to wash clothes.

Yiu Kin-hong, 42, said on Sunday he travelled with his 72-year-old mother to enjoy a spa day and a buffet dinner across the border as the prices were more affordable.

It has taken me four years to fully embrace that title. It’s not that I didn’t like the title – it’s one I’m immensely honoured and humbled to hold. But I struggled with being defined solely by motherhood. I was perhaps naive to believe it would be part of my identity and not wipe out the rest. Motherhood is wonderful, challenging, overwhelming, chaotic, exhausting – and more. However, when it comes to work – and by that I mean for mothers who, for whatever... https://www.scmp.com/opinion/hong-kong-opinion/article/3262195/hong-kong-mothers-shouldnt-have-apologise-demands-parenting?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/opinion/hong-kong-opinion/article/3262195/hong-kong-mothers-shouldnt-have-apologise-demands-parenting?utm_source=rss_feed Sun, 12 May 2024 08:30:14 +0000 Sunday, May 12, is Mother’s Day, a time to indulge your mother more than usual with love, gifts and food.

In many cases, this influence led them to pursue a culinary path later in life. In their restaurants, some chefs try to recreate the taste of their mother’s or grandmother’s cooking to evoke comfort and happiness, while others strive to present the nurturing feeling of caring for diners’ stomachs and souls.

A herbaceous perennial flowering plant native to southern Europe, the carnation’s cultivated forms have since ancient times been appreciated for their variously coloured, often fringe-petalled, clove-scented flowers. Its genus name Dianthus is composed of the Greek Dios, meaning “of Zeus”, the supreme god of the ancient Greeks, and anthos “flower” – thus “flower of the gods”.

Entrenched gender stereotypes place an unfair burden on working mums. At work, employers may be biased against female employees who are mothers, while at home, women are often expected to shoulder most of the childcare, care for the elderly and household duties.

Although many have seen an increase in Mother’s Day reservations, they say their bookings are nothing like they were last year, let alone before the Covid-19 pandemic. Many are also grappling with the requirements for the various categories of the vaccine bubble scheme, which allows restaurants to accept more customers and offer dine-in services longer depending on... https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/hong-kong-economy/article/3132721/hong-kong-coronavirus-restaurants-fill-mothers-day?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/hong-kong-economy/article/3132721/hong-kong-coronavirus-restaurants-fill-mothers-day?utm_source=rss_feed Sat, 08 May 2021 03:00:13 +0000 Mother’s Day is just around the corner, but with the coronavirus outbreak, extraordinary celebrations –such as island hopping or adventure travel – will have to be put on pause.

Parenting comes with immense responsibility, moral obligations, constant worry, lifelong commitments, and personal sacrifices, even when a child reaches adulthood.
