You have a point, although most would argue that the sacred nature of motherhood gives it a status a bit higher than the others.
My personal peeve with Mother's day is the policy in most wards to give flowers or whatever to all women over the age of 18. It is not Women's day, it's Mother's day, and I really dislike the politically correct notion that we might offend someone by excluding them.
