In this book, the author brings this issue to light. She uncovers the roots of ambivalence, tells how it manifests in lives of women and their children, and describes a spectrum of maternal behavior, from normal feelings to highly disturbed mothering. In a society where perfection in parenting is the unattainable ideal, this book also shows how women can affect positive change in their lives. 650 0 Motherhood|xPsychological aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008107964 650 0 Mother and child|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85087517|xPsychological aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002011485 650 0 Love, Maternal|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85078525|xPsychological aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002011485 650 7 Motherhood|xPsychological aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1026918 650 7 Mother and child|xPsychological aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1026881 650 7 Mother and child.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1026878 650 7 Love, Maternal|xPsychological aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1003060 650 7 Love, Maternal.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1003058 650 7 Motherhood.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/ homoit0001001 901 MARCIVE 20231220 935 556571 948 |d20120125|cMH|tcr 650xdelete|lridm|v1 994 C0|bRID
