Posted on September 16, 1998

Ladies' Home Journal and Seventeen are joining forces to explore the relationship between baby boomer mothers and their teenage daughters. A comprehensive survey probing the mother-daughter relationship appears in the October issues of both magazines. The results will be published simultaneously in a 1999 issue of their magazines. The two magazines plan to collaborate on similar surveys in the future to explore other issues of concern to their readers, it was announced by Myrna Blyth, editor-in-chief of Ladies' Home Journal, and Meredith Berlin, editor-in-chief of Seventeen.

The October surveys cover attitudes on many topics including birth control, working moms, weight, body image and food, privacy (including spying on each other) and no-holds barred communication. Seventeen is a Primedia consumer publication. Ladies' Home Journal is published by Meredith Corporation.
