Past-event conversation between parents and children has traditionally focused on developmental processes in children. The present study aimed to examine how maternal identity processes might unfold in past-event conversations with adolescents. Sixty-three mother–adolescent pairs completed a conversation about personal past events. The authors examined the degree to which the mother reported personal meaning and vulnerability in recounting past events. Results showed that maternal age was positively correlated with expressed personal meaning, and child age was positively correlated with maternal vulnerability and reciprocity in disclosing vulnerability. The authors discuss the results in terms of the role that these conversations may play in maternal identity development
