“The mother-child relationship is paradoxical and, in a sense, tragic. It requires the most intense love on the mother's side, yet this very love must help the child grow away from the mother, and to become fully independent.” ChildrenHelpingMotherGrowsSidesMomIndependentParentingMotherhoodIntenseTragicBeing A MomBeing A MotherParadoxicalMotheringMother LoveMother's LoveMother And ChildMother ProverbsMother ChildLove For My MotherIntense LoveMother CareMom And ChildLove MomMother Son RelationshipMotherhood And LoveLove Being A Mom Author:Erich Fromm
“Mother love has been much maligned. An over mothered boy may go through life expecting each new woman to love him the way his mother did. Her love may make any other love seem inadequate. But an unloved boy would be even more likely to idealize love. I don't think it's possible for a mother or father to love a child too much.” ThinkingWayMayChildrenHas BeensSeemsWould BeMotherFatherFamilyBoysToo MuchExpectingInadequateMother LoveUnloved Author:Frank Pittman
