This article aims to show society’s appreciation of motherhood, especially from the perspective of women. To achieve this goal we have done a bibliographic review and we have also based on two researches we did on the subject. The variables we present to explain the assessment of motherhood are as follows: social aspects linked to the motherhood of women in the Peruvian society, the life projects of women, the search for affection according to motherhood, valuation of out-of-home work superior studies. We found that there is a relationship between the life project, university studies and the assessment of motherhood. Adolescent mothers, because of self-esteem problems and lack of alternative life projects, have an extreme appreciation of motherhood; instead, young university girls value motherhood as much as the young men they study with.
