The New Don't Blame Mother

"Paula Caplan reveals the true causes of the anguish between mothers and daughters and shows how they can reevaluate the barriers between them to gain a new appreciation of each other and their relationship. With advice and personal stories, Caplan shows us how we can come to more fully love and accept each other and ourselves. The New Don't Blame Mother will explain how mothers and daughters can become allies and, at best, find the love they have lost and create new possibilities for caring about each other."—Jacket.
