The Mother and Child Relationship of the Navajo Indians.
This paper will discuss the aspects of Navajo life on the reservation. The role of the mother and infant will be brought to the forefront of this study. The breastfeeding, bed sharing, baby calls, and baby-wearing will be covered to give an idea of how these social practices are practiced in Indian life. By understanding the interrelationships that exist between mother and child, we can see how the life of the Navajo people is transmitted through the raising of their children. 6 pgs.
