“Some [adolescent] girls are depressed because they have lost their warm, open relationship with their parents.

Furthermore, they are discouraged by peers from expressing sadness at the loss of family relationships—even to say they are sad is to admit weakness and dependency.”
—Mary Pipher (20th century)

your scions are uprising,
fernlike, trustful.”
