Sandra Butler

Listen to "Sandra Butler It Never Ends" on Spreaker. As mothers and daughters age, their relationship shifts and changes in complex and often demanding ways. In IT NEVER ENDS, women speak openly about the satisfactions and sorrows of mothering middle-aged daughters and discuss the issues that continue to surface, the ongoing effects of the past on the present, and the varied and often invisible ways they continue mothering. Mothers acknowledge an inevitable recalibrating of authority, autonomy, and independence now that they no longer are as central in the lives of their daughters as they once were. In the pages of IT NEVER ENDS - mothers reveal the courage that comes with aging and their engagement in a time of reckoning: acknowledging past mistakes, forgiving themselves and their daughters, and moving toward a greater acceptance of their connection in all its human imperfection.
