Synopsis

In Our Daughters, author Ellen R. Johnson reflects on her difficult childhood, the lessons she has learned, and the various obstacles she overcame while growing up in Rochester, New York.

A teen parent who had four children by the time she was twenty-three, Johnson shares the importance of making good choices early in life, setting goals, and sharing the work of raising children.

From living on welfare to working a steady job to earning a college education, this poignant book provides an important perspective on the consequences of both positive and negative life decisions.

Johnson faced enormous challenges as a single mother and candidly points out the underlying struggle that women and men face when raising children as a solitary parent, resulting in something that is unfair to the caregiver, the children, and society.

Written by someone who could have fallen by the wayside but instead turned her life around and surpassed everyone’s expectations, including her own, this powerful resource promotes self-esteem, provides practical strategies for setting a variety of personal objectives, and encourages young women everywhere to discover who they are, where they are going, and how to get there.
