First Ladies on Motherhood

It is quite easy to lose sight of a personâs humanity when you are constantly bombarded with references to the office they hold, or in these tremendous ladiesâ cases, who they are married to.

Meet three mothers who live their lives in the fishbowl of public opinion, and in two cases are raising their children amidst the hype and hoopla of privilege, high office and public scrutiny.

Read of the concerns for the children of the country expressed by the 1st ladies of the nation: the wives of the Governor General, the Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition of St Vincent and the Grenadines. These women sat down individually to chat with SEARCHLIGHT in commemoration of Motherâs Day. Happy Motherâs Day to all mothers.
