WATCH: Girls and women are asked what the word ‘mother’ means to them

Caring, laughter, supportive, loving, hero, beautiful, strength, amazing, devoted - just some of the words that are used in response to the word 'mother' in this powerful and thought-provoking video. Girls from the age of five, up to women aged 50 (and every age in between) were asked what the word 'mother' means to them as part of a word association exercise in time for Mother's Day in the US tomorrow. Watch and listen to the varied responses - some silly and funny, some deep and meaningful - and notice how the meaning of the word changes as the participants get older. Warning: keep the tissues close, it's a bit of a tearjerker. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3J-LvI_mWc
