Abstract
- The article discusses the intense scrutiny and criticism faced by Ballerina Farm, also known as Hannah Neeleman, a Juilliard-trained ballerina and mother of seven who shares her life on social media. Many women, particularly mothers, feel attacked by Neeleman's seemingly perfect life and accuse her of promoting unrealistic expectations. However, the author argues that the anger directed at Neeleman is a reflection of the collective stress and frustration of American mothers, rather than anything she is doing wrong. The recent profile of Neeleman in the Times of London has shifted the narrative, portraying her as a victim rather than a villain. The author questions the need to champion Neeleman or label her as oppressed, emphasizing that she doesn't owe anyone anything and individuals can choose to follow her or not.
