A Two‐Way Mirror: Some reflections between a working mother and her daughter
Abstract
Few of us receive adequate training in motherhood. Ironically, there is a wealth of information: there are the examples of our own mothers to accept or reject; there are courses in child care which teach the technical skills—for instance, how to bath the baby without dropping or drowning the poor thing; the baby books tell us what to do for nappy rash and just about every other childhood ailment; child psychologists, general practitioners, and uncle Tom Cobley and all tell us ‘not to worry’.
