Self-Help
Thirty million mothers between 40 and 60 years old are about
to face childless households for the first time in decades.
For some women, it is a lonely and confusing time; but for
the vast majority, it's a journey of joy and discovery.
Through intensive and wide-ranging original research, author
Carin Rubenstein reveals how and why some mothers thrive and
others do not. She breaks the post-motherhood launch down
into three stages--grief, relief, and joy. If a woman makes
it through to the final stage, friendships blossom, work
thrives, and she develops a renewed sense of confidence and
well-being. While in many instances, increased time together
hastens the end of a struggling marriage, most women
discover their relationships improve when children leave.
BEYOND THE MOMMY YEARS offers fascinating research, helpful
advice, and amusing anecdotes to the millions facing this
uncertain but potentially enriching stage of life.
