Answer:
The main issue that the play raises is that the lady of the house, the very centre around which the family revolves, is never given her due respect, especially since she is just a simple housewife who is seen as someone who does not work or have any significant position in society. In the play ‘ Mother’s Day’, George, Doris and Cyril take Mrs. Pearson for granted and are always bossing her around. She is like an unpaid servant in the house, working countless hours and getting nothing in return. Even Annie’s simple requests like thanking her, or having some quality family time, goes unheard in the house. It take a spell-casting fortune-teller to create a ruckus in the house for the family to realise how significant a role Mrs. Pearson plays in their lives
The second issue is that the woman of the house does not assert her position very firmly in the family. She should be ready to put across her views with determination rather than surrender meekly. Mrs. Pearson only left subtle hints, which were easily overlooked by the Pearsons. She constantly tries to avoid any unpleasantness and is always willing to agree with the family, if it means she can spare their feelings. When Mrs. Fitzgerald take over, she insists that “a bit more of the same would do ‘em good”. She was able to bring the family in line with authority, which - according to the play - is important for a woman to lead her family.
