Constructing Motherhood and Daughterhood Across
the Lifespan

In Constructing Motherhood and Daughterhood Across the Lifespan, Dr. Allison Alford and Michelle Miller-Day focus on adult daughter-mother relationships, communication, and the emotional labor that occurs when maintaining these relationships.  In this book, they write about their own research findings and bring together other top scholars in family communication to reveal contemporary understandings of communication in adult daughter-mother relationships—the good, the bad, and the uncomfortable.
