You Enjoy Children

Enjoying children is one of the big signs you will be a great mom. It is hard to be a good mother if you cannot stand to be around kids. Admittedly, you do have a love for your own that you don’t have for other children but it helps to have a natural fondness for children. If you deeply dislike kids, it is probably wise to wait to become a mother. You don’t want to have a child if you don’t think you will enjoy motherhood.

UPD:

Children's laughter and playtime antics might fill you with joy, and this innate pleasure in witnessing their milestones underscores your potential as a nurturing caregiver. Being patient with their questions, and feeling a surge of pride over their achievements, no matter how small, further hints at the warmth and support you'd offer as a mother. Ever-present curiosity and an affectionate disposition towards children's unique perspectives and expressions are vital. If you often find yourself the go-to for babysitting among friends, it's likely because of this palpable love and ease you exhibit around children.

You Receive Compliments on How Good You Are with Kids

Getting compliments on how good you are with children is a big deal. Other people are noticing that you seem in your element with them. You aren’t fazed by them and you take all of their antics in your stride. If you are good with children, chances are higher that you will be good with your own. Others have confidence in your abilities with children and that says something.

3

You’ve Had Experience with Children

If you have never been around children or babies, it doesn’t mean that you can’t be a great mom. It may be a little more difficult for you to know what to do but you can certainly do it. Having experience with children helps. You can gain experience with children in many different ways. It could be by working with them as a teacher or day care worker or just spending time with nieces and nephews.

4

You Are Settled

Being settled is a point in favor of you being a great mom. Children thrive best in a settled environment. Being settled means that you believe in stability and it is something you have or are working toward. You aren’t going from one volatile relationship to the next. You have a good environment to bring a child into.

5

You’re Responsible

You absolutely need to be responsible to be a great mom. Your child is going to need a parent that is responsible and puts them first. Your child has to be your number one priority. Sometimes that means that you have to do things that aren’t that fun for you, like staying home with a sick child instead of going dancing with all of your girlfriends. Being responsible is a big part of being a great mom.

Famous Quotes

To give oneself earnestly to the duties due to men, and, while respecting spiritual beings, to keep aloof from them, may be called wisdom.

Confucius
6

You’re Patient

As much as you may love your children, they can and will find ways to test your patience. That is an absolute. Being a person with an unpleasant personality is not going to be helpful here. Children require large doses of patience and love. This does not mean that you will allow your child to run over you, but that you are patient in the normal settings where a child needs that from you.

7

You Know How to Set Boundaries

Balancing out patience is that you need to know how to set boundaries. Children need boundaries. This is something that helps them feel safe. They know what they can and cannot expect with boundaries. It provides a stable atmosphere for them to grow in.

Worst post I ever read. Maybe you are not a mom yet!

This is amazing

I would have to agree. I am none of these qualities... Maybe the last one when it comes to dealing with people I don't enjoy. I am a new mom but think I am doing pretty good so far.

Honestly I have next to none to these qualities but I feel I'm great and enjoy time with my son. Being a mother taught and shown me qualities I never knew I had or needed to learn. Good/great moms aren't born they're made :)

I think this post is aimed toward women who are waiting to have children

I agree with Thomas and Karen...

worst post ever, i was none of these and i turned out a brilliant mum. you eventually become all these.

i agree with them i got them all

This post only references stereotypical moms and some of the best moms turn out from the ones who never thought they'd be a mom
