Pat asks whether it's possible that mothering develops the way other
skills do according to P.Benner in 'From novice to expert'. I would say 'yes'
about the practical parts of it and 'no' about the emotional parts of it.
~~~ Since I don't want to highlight and CutNPaste all the wonderfully
insightful things Rachel wrote, I will just say thank you for a great post. I
see care-giving/"parenting" behaviors in my own adult but childless children
as they interact with their young cousins, the children of friends, the
children they work with, and the animals they love and care for, as well as
how they nurture my husband and I and others in their lives when we have
tough days. Very interesting to muse on all this...
Peace,
Judy
