Did Mother Teresa do the things she did for a religious reason?
Mother Teresa was a sister of the Missionaries of Charity and its founder. Her job was to discern the will of God and do her best to follow it. This caused her to "wear many hats" to carry out her God-given mission.

How did Mother Teresa respect human life?
She taught us that all must die a dignified death.
Roman Catholic AnswerMother Teresa loved God above everything in this life. She taught us that to love God, we must show respect to every human being around us, no matter what condition they are in. And that to show that respect, we must help them, giving of ourselves, because when we look at the aged, the poor, the sick, the new born, the AIDS patient, we see Our Blessed Lord in disguise, and in giving them help, we are serving Our Blessed Lord. To show "respect" without helping is meaningless, as St. James says, "But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves" [James 2:22] "What will it profit, my brethren, if a man says he has faith, but does not have works?" [James 2:14], or as Mother Teresa put it, "They are all Jesus in disguise."Why is Saint Teresa so special?

Stay with me and then I shall begin to shine as you shine, so to shine as to be a light to others.
Why are some people called Mother?
.
Catholic AnswerI am assuming that you are not referring to how to address your own natural mother. In the Catholic Church a woman is addressed "Mother" if she is a sister or nun who is the superior of her order. The Mother Superior, Mother Abbess, Mother Provincial, etc. are all addressed as Mother. In the case of Mother Teresa, originally she was a sister of the Sisters of Loretto who addressed all of their solemnly professed sisters as Mother. Later, when Mother Teresa founded the Missionaries of Charity she became their Founding Mother, as well as their Mother Superior. All such woman are address as "Reverend Mother" especially in writing, and should be shown the normal respect due to women, religious, and superiors by standing when they enter a room, and, if a man, removing your hat (if you're wearing one). I have included a website below that lists all the traditional marks of respect for various religious in the Church.How did Mother Teresa respond to moral issues?
A:
Mother Teresa was adamantly opposed to abortion and birth control, both of which she saw as moral issues. She was, at best, philosophical about the moral harm caused by paedophile priests.
Documents said to have been obtained by SF Weekly suggest that Mother Teresa knew one of her favourite priests, Donald McGuire, was removed from ministry for sexually abusing a Bay Area boy in 1993, and that she nevertheless urged that he be returned to work as soon as possible. The priest resumed active ministry, as well as his predatory habits. Eight additional complaints were lodged against him in the coming years by various families, leading to his eventual arrest on sex-abuse charges in 2005. Her actions may or may not have been criminal in themselves, but it appears she aided a criminal in Father McGuire, leading to the suffering of even more innocent young children.
