GOOD MOTHER, MY ASS

A Letter from a Woman Who Got Dragged into the Truth

By Anew Mirror

In a world unraveling at the seams, one woman stops pretending to have it together.

Good Mother, My Ass isn’t about parenting—it’s about unlearning the performance of love in a culture built on control. Through searing honesty and unfiltered prose, Anew Mirror tells the story of a mother whose son’s incarceration became the mirror she couldn’t look away from.

It’s not redemption.

It’s exposure.

A field report from the war between image and truth.

Each chapter cracks open another illusion: that proof equals love, that control equals safety, that silence equals peace. What’s left is a voice that refuses to be polite about pain—or complicit in systems that feed on it.

As the world itself hits 0°—a cosmic reset—this book lands like a confession humanity needs:

We’re all inmates of our own expectations.

The only way out is through.

For readers of: Glennon Doyle, Bell Hooks, and memoirs that refuse to flinch.

Themes: incarceration motherhood codependency spiritual disillusionment art as survival
