title: A young parent's anxieties in raising her infant in a non-traditional family structure.
abstract: In this paper I describe a 2-year observation of an infant from a young modern family who comes from a more traditional background. I will attempt to indicate how the young mother tended to re-enact with her child unresolved conflict stemming from her own childhood memories and other experiences in her own mothering. These were more pronounced in times of sickness, cultural beliefs, rituals and modern versus traditional ways of child rearing.
