The article explores the dilemma many moms face regarding their own celebration: whether to take charge and risk additional stress or leave plans up to others. This situation underscores the ongoing 'mental load' that comes with motherhood, even on a day dedicated to appreciating moms. The article encourages mothers to participate in a survey expressing their feelings on how Mother’s Day should be celebrated, covering topics from ideal activities to who should take on planning responsibilities.
