Why read it?
1 author picked The New Don't Blame Mother as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Mothers are too often blamed for their children’s and adult daughters’ problems. I regard Paula Caplan’s book as the quintessential text on understanding how patriarchy blames mothers and how mother-blaming harms mothers, women, and the mother-daughter relationship. Paula exposes the myths surrounding motherhood – revealing that there is no such thing as a “perfect mother.”
From Rosjke's list on to read about the mother-daughter relationship.
