Los problemas de mamá is a conventional domestic comedy that reflects the social hierarchies of 1970s Mexican cinema. While it offers high visibility for female characters, their roles appear confined to the domestic sphere and the management of family complications. The film functions as a mirror to established social norms rather than a tool for subversion. It emphasizes the maintenance of social cohesion through marriage and traditional family dynamics. Ultimately, the work lacks intentional narrative disruption, focusing instead on the comedic friction inherent in traditional nuclear family structures.

While the film centers on a matriarch and her daughters, their roles seem confined to domestic management and marital issues.
As a Mexican production, the film features a predominantly non-Anglo-Saxon cast reflecting the homogeneous social structures of its specific cultural context.
