Stories of women who mother are central to this work. The women are birth mothers, placing mothers, adopting mothers and teen mothers. Woven between their narratives, Bergum offers reflective commentary intended to show the mothering experience in all its complexity - bodily, culturally, and as the rootbed of relationship. The author uses research to bring the mothering experience to light, as it is lived, by exploring themes of love and pain, responsibilty, belonging, choice, transformation, and quickening of moral impulse to attend to the child. Bergum's intent is to encourage thoughtful reflection about what is learned through mothering, by women and by society, in order to create and sustain a society that is good for children and the women who mother them.
