Summary of Jasmin Lee Cori's The Emotionally Absent Mother

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The tree of life is a natural symbol for mothering. With its fruits and flowers, with birds and animals in and around it, it provides both shelter and supply. It is like a fountain of abundance. #2 We are made of our mothers, and we are shaped by them. The way we see ourselves and our sense of self-esteem are heavily influenced by our mother. She is not the only influence on us, but she and our interactions with her provide the basic building materials for all of these things. #3 The term mother can refer to any adult who takes on a caring, nurturing, and protective role in your life. This can include an adoptive mother, grandmother, or stepmother; even the right father can fill these shoes. #4 The good-enough mother is the one who provides enough for a child to have a good start in life. She is not always going to be perfect, but she must know how to make things right when she misses.
