Abstract:
Theories on mother-daughter relationships have long been one-sided and biologically biased. The resulting images put the mental and physical health of mothers and daughters at risk. This article examines the mothers' perspective, and highlights the mutuality and dynamics in the mother-daughter relationship. New perspectives for therapeutic activities are opened up.
