Another view of Eve as a mother, not only of Cain & Abel, but of all mankind:

Eve sold herself to Satan by following his delinquent suggestion. This in turn gave Cain and Abel the heritage of 'sin', and the resulting consequence of sin, 'death'. What kind of mother is such a mother? It would be equivilant to a mother with unborn child in her womb, if she smokes, or was a druggie. Even if the child is born, what kind of mother has her child in a smoke-filled room?

Because of her, and her husband, -- the world is what it is. Had they stood up to Satan, and resisted him - - that would have been a good mother; one loyal to her Creator.

We must also remember, that while Eve never mentions Abel with favor (shame on her), in Hebrews 11:4, Abel is the one from that time period, who is mentioned with favor by God. He was the one called 'righteous'. His sacrifice is called 'of greater worth than Cain's'.
