But as Forward explains in Mothers Who Can't Love, it is possible to heal the mother wound and find help and validation. The many different kinds of unloving mothersthe narcissistic mother, the competitive mother, the overly enmeshed mother, the control freak, mothers who need mothering, and mothers who abuse or fail to protect their daughters from abuseare all described in these pages. They each bring unique issues to the mother-daughter dynamic and need to be understood in order for healing to begin.
