The Mother is an entirely different kind of role model vis-a-vis her daughter than she is vis-a-vis her son. While every woman's tragedy is that she becomes her mother, every man's tragedy is he doesn't.

Mother is a real, omnipotent 'power', a law unto herself, who responds to the child's cries as she pleases.
The Mother is always caught in a tragic paradox. The mother-child relationship requires the most intense love on the mother's side, yet this very love must help the child grow away from the mother, and to become fully independent.

The Mother is, in some cases, in need of happy children, in others, in need unhappy ones in order to prove their maternal virtues.
