Liebow: Tell Them Who I Am

Liebow's conclusion about family diversity:

"Some of the women are desperately trying to rebuild family relationships, some are just as desperately trying to run away from them, and others are struggling to hold on to what they have."

Elliot Liebow, Tell Them Who I Am, chapter 3, page 82.
