内容説明・目次
内容説明
This text examines the intersections of race and gender in framing black mothers' emotional and behavioural responses to the sexual abuse of their children. Based on research with non-abusing black mothers, the effects of the abuse on mothers' parenting are posited to analyze the particular ways their mothering roles are impacted in the aftermath of abuse. It presents a black feminist investigation to critically evaluate the complexities for mothers. Developing a paradigm that is grounded in an understanding of gendered power relationships within black families, the book explores the implications for black mothers' help-seeking and protective strategies. Arguing that children's safety and long-term emotional needs can be enhanced by effective intervention with non-abusing mothers, the identification of risk situations for black children is discussed. The book offers an innovative perspective to expand understanding of the effects of child sexual abuse in black families.
