Such contact is precisely what much modern and postmodern criticism insists we cannot have.

Who make sure of a lot of things
Like that their kids
Wear nice clothes,
Comb their hair,
Brush their teeth.

How to make a girl feel like a girl
Without a mom to make her
feel that way? — Nancy J Cavanaugh
