I have young actors and actresses that i mentor. I have nieces and nephews that i am very close to. Reporter in an interview on bbc radio the 59yearold saying it wasnt her first choice to not have children but when her life went in a different direction she began caring for the young people closest to her. There is a way to become a mother in this day and age that doesnt include your name on the childs birth certificate. You know, you can express that maternal side of you very, very clearly, very strongly. Reporter adding shes highly offended when shes described as childless. It sounds like youre less because you havent had a child. Reporter while many online are supporting cattralls message, some say using the m word is taking things too far. One commenter writing, you may play a wonderful role as a mentor, friend, and older confidant, but you are not a mom. On one side mothers feel that shes not really a mother because she hasnt given birth to these children and she hasnt paid her dues. On the other side they would say you dont have to have given birth and spent time with children on a regular basis to el like a mother. Reporter still, this actress is committed to her special role. There are many different ways to be a mom in the world. Reporter Mara Schiavocampo, abc news, new york. And there are many different accents to kim cattrall.
