Director Farah Khan discussed experiencing mom-guilt while raising triplets and managing her career. Psychologists explain that mom-guilt—a mixture of shame, self-judgment, and worry—is common among working mothers. Khan reduced socializing and party attendance to spend more time with her children. Experts note that mothers face higher standards than fathers due to gender expectations. They recommend cognitive strategies, realistic expectations, and social support to manage mom-guilt effectively.
