Hand that Rocks the Cradle is an American silent film released in 1916. It was written, produced and directed by the husband and wife team Phillips Smalley and Lois Weber, who also play the lead roles. It was made in Hollywood under the working title "Is a Woman a Person?"
The plot follows the careers of a husband and wife pair of activists campagning for sex education and family planning. The events in the film were largely inspired by the trial of Margaret Sanger.
The film was an unofficial sequel to "Where Are My Children?", a 1916 film by the same team, and has been classified as a lost film. It was not a commercial success upon its release.
