Working Moms - strong women who are also mothers

When I first started watching this show, I didn’t like it particularly. It was just one more - nothing new. It was entertaining, though. It is a funny way of showing all the struggles you had after becoming a mother. I mean, that mum’s class… it’s a (hilarious) nightmare. I can tell you by experience.

Yet, if you get through the first season, you may find it more interesting in the next ones. From my perspective, it improves when it stops being all about the babies. It's about managing all aspects of your life instead.

Life doesn’t give a break

When a baby is born, it is hard. It is hard because life doesn’t stop because you had a baby. The world keeps moving, and things keep happening around you while you’re tired and just want to sleep.

We all doubt if we are good mothers if we are doing the best for our kids. There is no way to avoid them. Yet, life keeps happening, our work, our little choices, in which we also have doubts sometimes. It’s overwhelming.

What’s the place of your husband, your friends, your job… yourself? This show gives us a good picture of how hard it is to reconcile everything and how hard it is to do and be everything. Yes, if you’re thinking about watching a comedy, be prepared for some very dramatic moments as well.

It doesn’t get easier

Throughout the show, kids grow, and new challenges arise. It doesn’t get better; actually, it may be the exact opposite. The problems don’t end when the kids grow up, they become different, and many times, worst to deal with.

This last season had a great focus on Alice, and I really loved it. It focuses on the nowadays problems that kids face. Issues that didn’t exist when we were teens, which make it extra hard for the parents to deal with. Being a teenager’s mother is scary! Did you think taking care of a baby was difficult? Think again!

More, please

After having some doubts while watching the first season, I ended up loving the show. I totally recommend it.

It had a beautiful end that left me wanting more.

Can Monsters Love?Fred and Rose West: A British Horror Story

Netflix's Fred and Rose West: A British Horror Story is not just a true crime documentary — it’s a psychological deep dive into one of the most disturbing couples in British criminal history . While the crimes are shocking, the nature of Fred and Rose’s relationship truly unsettles. Were they in love? Or was their bond something far darker? A Match Made in Hell From the moment Fred and Rose met, something clicked. But it wasn’t a love story — it was a dangerous connection built on control, abuse, and mutual cruelty. The documentary shows us how they fed off each other’s darkest urges. It wasn’t about love in the traditional sense. It was about power, domination, and shared depravity. Can Psychopaths Feel Love? This is the big question. Can two people with such extreme psychological disorders really feel love? Some experts believe psychopaths can feel attachment, but not empathy — they might need someone, but not care for them in the way most of us understand....

Raising Voices - Why Alma's Mom Had the Right Reaction

In Netflix’s Raising Voices , there's a raw, emotionally charged moment when Alma confesses to her mom that something happened the night she disappeared — she was drunk, she had sex, and something didn’t feel right. It’s the kind of moment that many parents dread. But Alma’s mom handled it in a way that deserves attention. She didn’t panic. She didn’t judge. She didn’t lose control. Instead, she met her daughter halfway, which made all the difference. What Happened in the Scene? When Alma opened up to her mom, she wasn’t just confessing — she was testing the waters for safety. Could she trust her mom with the truth? Would she still be loved after saying something shameful, scary, or confusing? Her mom’s response wasn’t perfect — but it was real. She was concerned, but didn’t explode. She asked questions. She listened. She let the moment breathe. Why That Reaction Matters Technically, what Alma described can be considered sexual assault , given her level of intoxication. Bu...

Adolescence: A Mirror We Can’t Look Away From

How Can a 13-Year-Old Commit Murder? What was once an absurd, unthinkable question is the central premise of Adolescence , Netflix ’s latest British drama. From the first episode, the show grips you with its raw portrayal of youth violence. It pushes us to confront an unsettling reality—children, barely teenagers, are capable of unimaginable acts. But Adolescence does not sensationalize crime; rather, it dissects it , laying bare the complex web of factors that lead to such a moment. It’s Not About the Victim Unlike many crime dramas, Adolescence does not dwell on the victim. Instead, it forces us to ask: Who is the perpetrator? Who is his family? Who are his friends? What kind of environment produces a child capable of killing? The show wrestles with these haunting questions, exposing the uncomfortable truth that the killer does not come from an easily identifiable “dangerous” background. His family is normal—too normal. This leads us to the most disturbing though...
