In Italy it is difficult to accept an entrepreneurial mother.
His words on women mothers are quite clear and fully show his thoughts on the concept, to be eliminated, of the perfect mother who cannot be a worker at the same time.
When you become a mother to society you are almost nothing else. I always think that everything I do is always a little scrutinized, looked at with a magnifying glass. It almost seems that one has to choose whether to be more of an entrepreneur or more of a mother: there is still little idea that one can be both.

I hope that the new generations are committed to changing this principle!
