Description: "Exposing the myths and challenging the rhetoric, this book is the first real attempt to rethink our concept of mothering and its responsibilities. By revealing how we have arrived at a particular model of motherhood, it offers a new approach to raising children - one where the needs of mothers, fathers and others are more evenly balanced with those of the child."--BOOK JACKET.
