The bond between Gilgamesh and Mother Ninsun shows a very caring woman when situations include Gilgamesh. They are bonded and protective at all times. Mother Ninsun is extremely cautious when it comes to protecting her son from harm. Even though she states that Enkidu is also her son, it is clear that she has a big heart and this conveys a mother's love. Mother Ninsun and Mother Thetis indicate that they are willing to overcome obstacles to ensure the protection of their son's life. In the type of situations that Gilgamesh and Achilles face, both relationships are normal. These women develop different ways to please their heroic sons by showing compassionate feelings. Mother Ninsun encourages with a strong mind, but Mother Thetis tries to encourage her son with the customary knowledge she knows. Gilgamesh's mother is independent and values the bond in the relationship. However, Mother Thetis' bond with her son should be more reliable so that she is able to have better insight into Achilles' emotions so that he does not feel helpless. Mother Teti may also feel that she cannot accomplish many things for herself
