With an affecting mix of humor and introspection, she describes the subtle and not-so-subtle ways she was pressured to have children and the feelings of isolation and self-doubt that ensued. Her delightful full-color illustrations capture perfectly the maddeningly narrow-minded reactions of those around her as well as her own discomfort and frustration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA true story of liberation and self-empowerment in the face of societal prejudice, \u003ci\u003eI Don't Want to Be a Mom\u003c\/i\u003e questions the imposition of motherhood on women as both an expectation and a path toward fulfillment.
