Few of the child's developmental needs are met because the mother cannot be a parent. Consequently, the child is programmed for a lifelong struggle against failure. For over twenty years, people have shared their own agonizing stories with me, looking to my journey for a sense of hope.

Synopsis

Psychotherapists have long worked with children, young and old, of borderline mothers. In this work, Dr Lawson seeks to bring readers into the world of the borderline child. She describes four basic profiles: the Waif Mother, the Hermit Mother, the Queen Mother and the Witch. She shows how to love the Waif without rescuing her, to love the Hermit without feeding her fear, to love the Queen without becoming her subject, and to live with the Witch without becoming her victim., An examination of the world of borderline mothers and children. Dr Lawson describes four basic profiles of the borderline mother: the Waif Mother, the Hermit Mother, the Queen Mother and the Witch. She goes on to demonstrate how to cope with each of these types., The first love in our lives is our mother. Recognizing her face, her voice, the meaning of her moods, and her facial expressions is crucial to survival. Dr. Christine Ann Lawson vividly describes how mothers who suffer from borderline personality disorder produce children who may flounder in life even as adults, futilely struggling to reach the safety of a parental harbor, unable to recognize that their borderline parent lacks a pier, or even a discernible shore. Four character profiles describe different symptom clusters that include the waif mother, the hermit mother, the queen mother, and the witch. Children of borderlines are at risk for developing this complex and devastating personality disorder themselves. Dr. Lawson's recommendations for prevention include empathic understanding of the borderline mother and early intervention with her children to ground them in reality and counteract the often dangerous effects of living with a 'make-believe' mother. Some readers may recognize their mothers as well as themselves in this book. They will also find specific suggestions for creating healthier relationships. Addressing the adult children of borderlines and the therapists who work with them, Dr. Lawson shows how to care for the waif without rescuing her, to attend to the hermit without feeding her fear, to love the queen without becoming her subject, and to live with the witch without becoming her victim.
