The oath of a mother to her child begins with going through a hard period of labor that leads to life. The mother declares her love through an oath, to ensure the survival of her child. In spite of different stages endured in connection with protection, education, security, love, food, health etc. her love never fails. The mother reassures and reaffirms her attachment and her omnipresence to her child during all the hazards of life. Under certain circumstances, the child can only rely on and hope for his mother.
