Is an early mother-child bond severed during adolescence and never formed again? What does adolescence feel like to a girl? \u003cbr\u003eDrawing on detailed interviews with mothers and daughters from Terri Apter's research in Great Britain and America, and from recent psychological studies of family interaction, Altered Loves is a frank, moving, and insightful examination of this crucial time in a woman's life. Apter shows that contrary to the classical view of adolescence as a stage in which daughters reject their mothers, adolescent daughters often remain strongly attached to them. The strife that characterizes this period is actually the result of trying to renegotiate a valued relationship. \u003cbr\u003eBeautifully written, Altered Loves explodes conventional myths and theories about mother-daughter relationships and offers new and valuable insights that will help mothers remember and daughters understand the delicate, painful, and complex process of becoming a woman.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Random House Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45408930201751,"sku":"9780449906316","price":1576.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780449906316.webp?v=1767310806","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/altered-loves-mothers-and-daughters-during-adolescence-9780449906316","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
