Moms often cry in their cars due to the need for solitude amidst overwhelming responsibilities at home. The car provides a unique space away from the demands of family, work, and society. Mental health experts acknowledge that this behavior is completely normal, allowing mothers to express emotions without burdening their families. The car serves as a transitional location where mothers may reflect on their feelings, thus making it a cathartic environment for emotional release.
Moms may feel safe to cry in the car because it's one of the few times and places we may actually be alone and fully free from the demands and expectations of other people, whether that's kids, partners, coworkers, or even just strangers on the street.
The car tends to be a place where we can conveniently grab a few minutes of privacy to let out all the things we've been holding in. So not only are we juggling the mental load... but we also work to not put that burden back on our family.
