"motherhood 1. n. Condescension. Used to describe a common attitude of software development groups toward their underlings (i.e., the users of their software). It is attributable to the observation that designers often believe their creations to be the “ultimate solution”, to which no possible improvement could be conceived. “Why don’t they distribute source code?” − “Motherhood, pure motherhood”.
