Mothers are supposed to do it all: raise A-list children, maintain flawless homes, earn decent wages, volunteer for everything, do errands, and raise the ideal spouse. Single mothers frequently face greater duties and less assistance. Dr. Meeker uses personal stories from raising four children and clinical statistics to demonstrate why moms suffer from the increasing pressure to perform well and the toll it has on their emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual health in this call for change. Too many women are becoming more isolated, worried, sad, and self-critical while unwilling to absolve themselves of responsibility.
