Research Methods --Notes --References --IndexIn a time of economic anxiety, fear of terrorism, and marital uncertainty, insecurity has become a big part of life for many American mothers. With bases of security far from guaranteed, mothers are often seeking something they can count on. In this beautifully written and accessible book, Ana Villalobos shows how mothers frequently rely on the one thing that seems sure to them: the mother-child relationship. Based on over one hundred interviews with and observations of mothers-single or married, but all experiencing varying forms of insecurity in their lives-Villalobos finds that mothers overwhelmingly expect the mothering relationship to "make it all better" for themselves and their children. But there is a price to pay for loading this single relationship with such high expectations. Using detailed case studies, Villalobos shows how women's Herculean attempts to create various kinds of security through mothering often backfire, thereby exhausting mothers, deflecting their focus from other possible sources of security, and creating more stress. That stress is further exacerbated by dominant ideals about "good" mothering-ideals that are fraught with societal pressures and expectations that reach well beyond what mothers can actually do for their children. Pointing to hopeful alternatives, Villalobos shows how more realistic expectations about motherhood lead remarkably to greater security in families by prompting mothers to cast broader security nets, making conditions less stressful and-just as significantly-bringing greater joy in mothering.MotherhoodMother and childSecurity (Psychology) in childrenSecurity (Psychology)21st century american culture.american culture.american mothers.economic anxiety.family.gender and women studies.gender studies.good mothering.human condition.insecurity.joy.marital uncertainty.marriage and divorce.mother and child.mother child relationship.motherhood.mothering.parent and child.parenthood.parenting.realistic expectations of motherhood.realistic.security in family.security nets.single mothers.social pressures.stress.terrorism.womanhood.MotherhoodMother and childSecurity (Psychology) in childrenSecurity (Psychology)306.874 3Villalobos Anaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1466634DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910786603403321Motherload3677146UNINA02255nam 2200505z- 450 991055758790332120211118(CKB)5400000000043769(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/73768(oapen)doab73768(oapen)73768(EXLCZ)99540000000004376920202111d2020 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAdaptive Gait and Postural Control: from Physiological to Pathological Mechanisms, Towards Prevention and RehabilitationFrontiers Media SA20201 online resource (346 p.)2-88963-626-7 This eBook is a collection of articles from a Frontiers Research Topic.
