"it is an essential breathing space in which to discover one's lost identity and parade as an attractive woman once again, instead of having to be a sufering symbol of eternal sacrificial motherhood, a nagging ramrod of a mother. It is much pleasanter to be the wicked child on the recieving end of these constant reproofs that to be a constantly reproving battering ram of a mother. The wicked child has all the fun and takes no notice of the nagging. The mother kicks helself for abandoning so easily her wicked girlhood."
