Reviews

"McFadden offers insight and honesty in a discussion of the healthy ways mothers can help their daughters grow comfortable and knowledgable about their sexuality...There are hurdles to cross and backs to be straightened when it comes to this topic, but daughters need their mothers, and it's time they heard their voices. An empowering resource for mothers and daughters everywhere."
—Kirkus Reviews

"A fascinating and empowering text for women of all ages."
—Publishers Weekly

"I couldn't put it down. This book is a revolution in mindful caring for girls. It tells us how to dispel our own mother/daughter myths and how to realize and support our girls in the recognition and celebration of their sexual selves to gain lifelong physical and mental happiness. This is THE book I would recommend to all my mothers of girls and to all their doctors, teachers and therapists. I wish I had this book when I started in pediatric practice 20 years ago: from it I've learned that I missed so many opportunities to nurture my female patients as females growing into themselves. I love this book."
—Barbara H. Landreth, M.D., Clinical Instructor in Pediatrics, Weill Cornell Medical College, Pediatrician, The New York-Presbyterian Hospital

"What an amazing and insightful guide for mothers facing the huge challenge of supporting their daughters amidst the many "hate your body" media messages that assault all of us daily."
—Judy Norsigian, co-author of OUR BODIES, OURSELVES

"Your Daughter's Bedroom is loaded with the kind of insight, wisdom, and practical advice that all mothers need to know to raise healthy daughters who are comfortable with their own sexuality. I highly recommend it!"
—Christiane Northrup, M.D., ob/gyn physician and author of the New York Times bestsellers: WOMEN'S BODIES, WOMEN'S WISDOM and THE WISDOM OF MENOPAUSE

"Using thousands of intimate interviews with women Joyce McFadden argues that –despite ourselves and inadvertently—sexism comes, in part, from the unhealthy messages we send our daughters about sex and behavior. A groundbreaking look at sexuality, mothers, daughters, and the myriad subtle ways one generation of women shapes the next."
—Jennifer Baumgardner, author of MANIFESTA, LOOK BOTH WAYS and ABORTION & LIFE

"In this important book Joyce McFadden shows how mothers affect their daughters' sense of self through the sort of sexuality they model as well as their explicit communications and exhortations. It's an honest, surprising and compelling look at this crucial contemporary dilemma."
—Jessica Benjamin, Professor of Psychology, New York University, author of THE BONDS OF LOVE

"An important book that gets at the heart of the mother and daughter bond and finally explodes the myth that women have to turn themselves into sexless Stepford wives to be good mothers. Expansive, honest, informed, and real."
—Deborah Siegel, author of SISTERHOOD, INTERRUPTED
