　　導(dǎo)語：《傳奇》雜志的艾瑪索姆斯稱：“如今，年長的女性心態(tài)比前輩們更年輕，代溝逐漸填平，之前只看表象不傾聽孩子聲音的教育方式也消弭殆盡。”

　　Up to 39 percent of women under 50 talk to their mothers every day, according to a study. And one in three talks to them once or twice a week, with many dialing their mum's number whenever they are in need of advice or support.
