商品簡介
Clinical psychologist Poulter follows up on his earlier The Father Factor with a book examining how one's relationship with one's mother has a profound and enduring influence on one's relationships and life-choices, and providing advice on how to recognize that influence and address any negative consequences of it. Along the way he discusses the influence of the mother-child relationship according to four different types of the attachment/nurturing bond (intermittent, avoidant, depressed, and secure), which he argues provides the foundation for all future relationships; the strong influence of one's mother's spoken and unspoken rules about work, relationships, emotions, separation, and independence; and the impact of the mothering style (a combination of daily interactions, behaviors, emotional beliefs, and communication patterns) on personal and professional relationships of children.
