The relationship between parents and children is one of the most primal of human bonds--and one of the most emotionally fraught. Many times, parents and children often pitch battles over issues of identity. How is a child to define their identity as separate from the parent? How do parental expectations and critique shape the identities of a child? How is a child's identity changed with the death of a parent? These issues will be central to this unit.
