Abstract

The images presented in this work clearly illustrate the variety of experiences of motherhood. The material in this article supplements the existing epistemological ideas about the problem of determining the norms and deviations in psychological studies of motherhood. The author presents a system of diagnostic criteria and assessment of the mother-child relationship. The article explains the term “deviant motherhood” and indicates various degrees of severity of behavioral disorders. There are four main modes of the functioning of the “mother-child” system, reflecting the main variants of motherhood: normative and relatively normative motherhood, deviant mother-child relationship, pathological motherhood (antisocial form), and pathological motherhood (prosocial form).
