Bad Mother(2017)

The Madness of Modern Motherhood

Bad Mother is a series that explores the impossible standards of modern parenting. As motherhood has evolved into a profession with ever-rising expectations, women find themselves caught between societal demands and personal reality. The show examines the gap between the idealized mother and the flawed human beneath, following women who navigate guilt, failure, and the messy truth of raising children. Through darkly comedic and honest storytelling, Bad Mother captures the frustration, exhaustion, and occasional triumph of trying to meet impossible standards while simply trying to survive. It's a candid look at how mothers judge themselves—and each other—in an era where perfection is the only acceptable goal, yet remains utterly unattainable.
