  Women who become mothers often find their new role daunting. There a pressure from society in general, to be the perfect carer, the perfect spouse, the perfect all-rounder. If the demands from her family succeed in displacing her career, her friends, her hopes and ambitions and ultimately her sense of self, the drift towrds being an invisible person begins. In striving to be the perfect mother she sacrifices her own needs, desires and happeiness, yet in the end she is doing her family no favours.
