"Why do I hurt so much when she pulls away?" "What did I do wrong?" "Are we ever going to be friends again?" -- the concerns that are voiced in these pages reflect the universal experience of mothers facing one set of life changes while their daughters are facing another. With humor, pathos, insight, rage, sadness, joy, and ultimately optimism, more than 110 mothers from all walks of life talk about rejection, separation, and bonding; feminism versus Girl Power; love and sex; friends; school; drugs and alcohol; divorce; menstruation and menopause; and much more. They reveal how this life passage reshapes mothers as well as children, and let readers know that they are not alone in their frustration, confusion, and exhilaration over raising adolescent daughters.
