If you are a mother raising a daughter alone this book is for you. There is a need for all children to have a loving interaction from both biological parents. With that said...you must first understand that a state of being fatherless has a direct impact on a child's ability to receive and give love. It also shapes the establishment of true identity, which is imparted by the father. This subsequently could affect your daughter's ability to care and love her own child in a healthy manner as a mom. Merely giving birth to a child will not automatically make a woman maternal. As mothers, we have to be deliberate in the way we nurture, love, and guide our children. An emotional disconnection between a child and her caregivers will affect the child's overall development.
