Ayu's social networks - Discussion #58

[xLuna&1LOVE]

So, yesterday Ayu posted on Instagram a cute picture of a painting her eldest son made for her. She wrote something about Mother's Day, which I attempted to translate by Google, but still I have no clue what she was saying. Does anyone have time to translate the description for me? I really would like to understand her message.

I don't know if you still need this but:

"Happy mother's day

Since I could work also as "ayu" while I've been helped a lot by my family and people around me, I think I'm having a lot of shortcoming as a "mother". Even so, my son that gave me this gift out of inconditional love, made me think to control myself more in order to, someday, make him able to stand head-up and say "Ayu is my mom!". In order to not make him ashamed or embarassed.

By the way, the previous post was also about a gift that my older son gave to me. In that occasion the school told me that "compared to other kids, his brushstroke was too weak". Apparently, the other kids traced stronger lines. Paying attention to it now, it's true that the lines look weakl-ish. However, when I looked at it, I couldn't stop the flowing tears thinking that these letters were a reflection of his own identity. This is "individuality", isn't it? If you are different you get scolded, and the difference pointed out, corrected. Children are losing their "identity" and are being put in line in the name of eduction...

Recently I can't help but think about that. Well, unfortunately isn't something limited to children...

I'm wandering off the topic and this is getting longer

This year as well, sending respect to my mommy and the mothers all over the world."

What a stupid thing for teachers to waste their time on. Ayu is being classy here, criticizing without calling out people's names or even insulting anyone. Good for her, too.
