Mujeres visibles, madres invisibles

by Laura Gutman

En este libro, la autora que más ha contribuido a amplificar la mirada femenina explica por qué las mujeres son visibles en el trabajo, la profesión, la política o el ámbito social, y cuando devienen madres ingresan en un lugar totalmente invisible a los ojos de los demás. Al hablar de la crianza, Laura Gutman aborda temas como la conexión con el bebe, por qué es tan difícil ser madre, el instinto de apego hacia la criatura, lactancia versus libertad personal, el puerperio, las madres que trabajan, los estragos de la falta de amor materno, el poder destructivo de los secretos, violencia escolar y bullying, los niños y el derecho a la verdad, el mundo desde el punto de vista del niño, niños estresados, niños hiperactivos, los berrinches, la llegada de un hermanito, la vuelta a casa con un bebe prematuro, el destete, la regulación del hambre, cuando el bebe no quiere dormir solo, el llamado del niño que desea ser adoptado, entre otros. Como en todos sus libros, la autora está atenta a las conflictivas de la mujer en tanto madre y reflexiona sobre la represión sexual y los partos en cautiverio, el maltrato y la deshumanización en la atención de los partos, la maternidad después de los 40, sexualidad y puerperio, fertilizaciones asistidas, las doulas y las redes de apoyo entre mujeres, madres solas, las mujeres sabias, abuelas maduras o inmaduras, el vínculo entre la madre mayor y la madre joven. En lo que hace a la vida en pareja, toma nota del punto de vista femenino respecto de la paternidad, "los tuyos, los míos, los nuestros", los divorcios controvertidos, niños como rehenes de los divorcios o las nuevas compañías de los ex cónyuges. Y brinda notas originales y ricas sobre los regalos de Navidad, la Madre Tierra, la felicidad responsable, o un mundo mejor.

Mum, Can You Lend Me Twenty Quid?: What drugs did to my family

by Elizabeth Burton-Phillips MBE

i newspaper 'What We're Reading This Week' December 2017'Elizabeth's courage in speaking out is moving, and her ability to move others is impressive.

The painful journey ended in the way Elizabeth had always dreaded - a knock on the door in the middle of the night by the police. They gave her the devastating news that her son Nick had killed himself in despair at his heroin addiction.

Mummy, Take Me Home: A Mother's Tug-of-Love Torment

by David Leslie

'Mummy, take me home,' sobbed little Jasmine Chapman as she was ripped from her mother's arms. But there was nothing that Morag could do . . . except continue to fight for custody of the child she loved so much.When their relationship ended, Jasmine's parents argued bitterly about her future. But they were unable to come to an amicable agreement, and a UK court ruled that the case be heard in the US, the home of Jasmine's father. Fearing that she would lose her child, Morag fled from Texas with her daughter, only to be hauled back in shackles and incarcerated in a grim American prison. When Morag was eventually freed and awarded custody of her little girl, she thought her nightmare was over. However, back in the UK, every move she made was watched and every mistake recorded. Morag sank into deep depression and became lost in a haze of alcohol and drugs. The once beautiful and desirable young woman found her life spiralling out of control. Eventually, she lost the daughter she had fought so hard to keep.Mummy, Take Me Home is the gripping and disturbing true-life story of a tug of love that no mother should ever face and no child should be forced to endure.
