Objectives: This study aimed to understand the mother-daughter relationship of never-married women in their 40s and 50s who live with their family.
Methods: The collected data from in-depth interviews with 11 never-married women from the age of 40 to 59 who live with their family was analyzed with the grounded theory proposed by Strauss & Corbin(1998).
Results: As a result of analyzing according to the procedure of grounded theory, 114 concepts, 45 subcategories, and 20 categories were derived. The central phenomenon that never-married women in their 40s and 50s who live with their family experience in the mother-daughter relationship was “series of dependence and pushing away.” The process of the mother-daughter relationship experiences of never-married women in their 40s and 50s who live with their family appeared as four stages of “conflict management,” “perception change,” “change initiative,” and “reestablishment.” The core category of the mother-daughter relationship experience of never-married women in their 40s and 50s who live with their family appeared as “aiming at a new relationship in the tentative peace achieved by patience and sense of responsibility.”
Conclusions: The study is significant in that it can help counseling intervention by revealing factors that facilitate and debilitate the mother-daughter relationship of never-married women in their 40s and 50s.
