I also feel like as far as mother-child relationships as well as patriarchal elements, Annie’s relationship with her mother is interesting because Annie obviously had some form of rejection to her mothers beliefs, cult aside, to lead to estrangement. In the eyes of the mother she doesn’t aid in her cause while if she was a man then she could at least be a pawn to serve the cults purpose. Because she’s not, the mother resents her for not furthering the cause of the cult
