Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 社會工作學研究所 === 101 === The purpose of this study is to against the negative imaginations toward battered female’s mothering. Through in-depth interviews with six mothers who had been battered by their spouses, their mothering experiences are illustrated and analyzed in this research. The analysis reveals that being abused changed and shaped their experiences of motherhood and that they faced complex mothering challenges. Being a mother nevertheless acted as a buffer against the abuse and turned out as a source of strength. The findings extend our understanding of the complexities of mothering in the context of abuse and provide directions for practical support for battered mothers.
