Mad Mothers Bad Mothers What A Good Mother Would Do The Ethics Of Ambivalence

Sarah LaChance Adams gives a compelling account of maternal ambivalence. Taking the mother's conflicting needs and desires to nurture, on the one hand, and to be independent and free of care-taking responsibilities, on the other, as a model for the ethical relationship, she argues that all human relationships are ambivalent. Moreover, it is this ambivalence that makes them ethical. She shows how the conflict between care and independence is at the heart of all ethical relationships.
