The story focuses on a group of mothers who all have children around the same age. These women form a bond by sharing their anxieties about raising their children, each coming from a different background. However, the friendship between the five women also turns to jealousy and betrayal due to the fact that their children are all taking similar entrance exams for elementary school. Yuko, whose set of values as a woman, wife, and mother have been overturned, struggles to climb back from her fallen state. Meanwhile, her four fellow mothers are hiding serious problems at home despite their appearances. Anno Chihiro is a woman receiving verbal abuse from her husband on a daily basis, Shindo Mao is a “yankee mama” who got pregnant as a teenager by a truck driver, Sawada Rikako is a capable woman running her own online shop, and Motomiya Reina is a popular reader model for a women's magazine.

This dorama is about a very common thing in Japanese culture - Ijime (=bullying).

However, this time, it is about the Ijime between mothers, which reflects the social pressure on Japanese mothers perfectly.

Most shows have a very stereotypical way of handling this sort of problem: There's the good guys and the bad guys... and some side-characters... The usual way to portraying such a topic.

Namae o nakushita megami however, portrays very realistic characters, which are neither good or bad, but rather act human. Everyone has their good and bad characteristics and their ways of handling situations.

The story was believable and so were the characters, I must admit, I am not the type that cries a lot, but heck... the kids were so cute and their acting was superb, they made me cry so much >_
