Some people seem to want to convince you that this or that is what you're supposed to do because that's what they chose. Even your own friends or family members might do that, possibly without knowing they're doing it sometimes. You just get the feeling that a certain way of life is not set up to include what you are supposed to be doing with yours, and that you might need to go in a different direction.
Sometimes, a cult of motherhood can feel just as unbalanced as a cult of patriarchal god worship.
Staying away from those dynamics can feel akin to escaping from a religious sect whose practices aren't very psychologically healthy for you.
