Being there : why prioritising motherhood in the first three years matters

Komisar, Erica2026
Book
Here is a powerful look at the importance of a mother's presence in the first years of life. In this important and conversation-starting book, veteran psychoanalyst Erica Komisar offers a provocative and compelling premise: a mother's emotional and physical presence in her child's life - especially during the first three years - means that her child has a greater chance of growing up emotionally healthy, happy, secure, and resilient. When that essential presence goes missing, the child is at higher risk for social, emotional, and developmental issues, both immediate and long term. In other words, when it comes to connecting with your baby or toddler, more is more.
