The book examines how the concept of the "bad mother" is portrayed in various media, including literature, film, and television. It argues that these representations often reinforce societal norms surrounding motherhood, although some narratives challenge these perceptions and encourage a reevaluation of traditional motherhood roles. Through this exploration, the author prompts readers to consider alternative constructions of motherhood.
