“…Examples of significant maternal characteristics include: 1) Age. Young mothers are considered to be at higher risk than adult women in parenting because they are often psychologically immature, lack knowledge about child growth and development and have normal developmental needs that may conflict with their infants (Cutrona & Sadler, 1984;DeLissovoy, 1973;Fry, 1985). Research findings on the effects of maternal age on subsequent maternal behavior are conflictual.…”

Maternal role attainment (MRA) is frequently cited in theoretical articles and research published in the nursing literature. This paper presents an historical and empirical review of MRA. Variables influencing MRA are described. New data are presented raising questions about the original conceptualization of MRA and suggesting possible discrete affective and behavioral dimensions of the construct.

The aims were to identify what the child health nurse believed was expected of her by women who had recently become mothers, primipara and multipara, to investigate which problems the nurse found most difficult to deal with and to analyse why they were difficult. The grounded theory method was employed for conducting interviews with 15 nurses. The data analysis showed that the nurses thought mothers expected care of the infant and the family from the nurse, comprising support, advice and child health assessments. What the nurses found most difficult to deal with were obstacles to interaction with mothers such as motherhood problems, hidden, social and organisational problems. They wanted to have a positive interaction with mothers to be able to fulfil the task of supporting parents and identifying risks to the child's healthy upbringing. This task places great demands on nurses' competence and knowledge about the child and family.

“…The program curriculum stems from understanding the unique developmental and contextual (cultural, economic, and family) behaviors and styles of adolescent mothers (Catrone & Sadler, 1984). The rapid transition to parenthood adds to the stress felt by most adolescents and their family members (Heinicke, 1995) and channels the young mother's time and energy away from her own developmental tasks.…”
