This volume examines communication processes within the
grandmother-mother-daughter relationship, emphasizing an
intergenerational perspective. Using observations of and extensive
interviews with six sets of middle-income, Caucasian female family
members, this book offers a heuristic account of intergenerational
mother-daughter relational communication.
Author Michelle Miller-Day integrates and juxtaposes alternative
experiences of social interaction, situating readers in the world
of grandmothers, mothers, adult daughters, and granddaughters as
they experience, describe, and analyze their family communication.
Miller-Day incorporates aged mothers and younger mid-life mothers
and their adult daughters into the research to illustrate how this
type of maternal relationship is experienced at different points in
a woman's life. With the inclusion of three generations of women,
Miller-Day offers multigenerational perspectives on family, and
examines them for patterns of maternal interaction, providing
symbolic links across generational boundaries.
"Communication Among Grandmothers, Mothers, and Adult Daughters
"enables readers to understand more completely the richly textured
nature of maternal relationships. It will be an invaluable resource
for scholars and researchers in the areas of communication and
relationships, including family communication, intergenerational
communication, women's studies, family studies, interpersonal
communication, and relationships, as well as social workers,
psychologists, and counselors, who strive to understand family
communication processes and their dynamics across generational
lines.
