Brite, Brooke M2008-02-122008-02-122008-02-12http://hdl.handle.net/2097/556Throughout this report, I focused on how the mother-child relationship is affected following the loss of a husband/father. I started with a case study and followed with the effects of losing a spouse, the effects of losing a parent, specifically how the mother-child relationship is impacted, and ended with a recommendation for a course of therapy, referencing back to the case study presented in the opening chapter. The loss of a husband/father is an extremely difficult occurrence, and as illustrated in this report, will have a lasting impact on the complexities of the mother-child relationship.en-USmother-child relationshipgriefdeath of fatherReportPsychology, Social (0451)Social Work (0452)Sociology, Individual and Family Studies (0628)
