Course Description:
This interactive workshop will begin with a thought-provoking literature review and discussion on the topics of mothers that have toxic tendencies, and the impact of being raised in this environment. Specifically, you will examine the impact of early maternal neglect and abuse on the developmental outcomes of young daughters. You will then examine the experiences of these daughters once they reach adulthood and are charged with the task of mothering their own infants and toddlers. Videotaped interviews of these daughters will be presented throughout this workshop and will be used to illustrate (in the words of the daughters) the challenges they face in the aftermath of their challenging relationships with their own mothers. Evidenced based clinical practices used to work with young mothers and their children will also be explored.
