Abstract:
|
While the majority of menopausal research focuses on understanding a woman's transition (i.e., medical needs, negative experiences, and physician communication), little research exists for how these experiences are communicated to young adult children. This paper seeks to better articulate the willingness to talk about the topic, conversational competence, and attitudes that midlife mothers and their adult children use to discuss the menopausal period. In addition, important ties can be demonstrated between mother communication about teen sexual health and menopausal communication. |
