Yet there is little support for raising families. For example, parents with young children are pressured into jobs and childcare&#8211;yet many want the choice of being a full time mother or father. Joan Salter helps you choose by portraying mothering and creating a home as special work.<\/p>\n<p>Women share their experiences of what mothering means for them. This &#8220;career of the heart&#8221; can be seen as a soulful and spiritual activity, not merely a practical job. This brings a profound intimacy with your child through pregnancy, birth and the early years.<\/p>\n<p>There are sections on expecting, birthing, mothering, breast-feeding, the rhythms of the day, the evolution of consciousness, work outside the family, childcare, the growth of love, and grandmothers.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I would like to thank Joan Salter on behalf of the countless mothers whose work is not given the moral or material recognition it deserves &#8230; A revolutionary book.&#8221; <strong>-Dr Michaela Gl\u00f6ckler<\/strong>,\u00a0<em>Afterword<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>About the Author<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><b>Joan Salter<\/b> (1912-2004) was a nurse and became well respected for her work in maternal and child health care.
