Elements of lived

She reports some important components of sound lived clean, in particular:

Baby, it is entrusted to a nurse who will be returned at the end of a few months. The separation of with this one seems to have marked it much (it however had only a few months).
It is symbolically related to an uncle left to the war (war of 1914 - 1918), of which it is regarded (with eyes of child) as been engaged a little. She will carry a form of mourning to died of this one.
It has a big sister, more or less adulated by the mother, who dies young person. His/her mother had said has Francoise (old of ten years) that the prayers of a pure little girl could save her sister, then had shown it death of this one. She had still disparaged it then, implying to him that she did not equalize her sister deceased (she will do all to prevent it from making her medicine).
Of the neighbors was regarded as the insane ones. This final sentence with regard to people whom it simply perceived in suffering seems to have marked it also much in its youth.

It should well be specified that Francoise Dolto respects the people and that she reports without anger of the facts which, if they are aggressions, are often associated in the account with sufferings.

Work and the contribution of Francoise Dolto

She was interested primarily in the psychoanalysis of childhood and supported her thesis " Psychoanalyze and pédiatrie" in 1939. For it, the child can be psychoanalyzed very early as an individual. Childhood thus has a fundamental role for the development of the individual.

She considers that before even as the child has a true “language”, the human being being essentially communicating, he communicates already, with her way, by the body: to learn how to go, or to even move with four legs, for example, it is to start to want to free themselves from the parents and to express a beginning of desire of independence.

It also analyzes the children ratios/parents, and in particular the origin of the Oedipus complex and the importance of the role of the father as of the first days. Through the father, the child understands that it is not all for his mother, which involves a report/ratio of frustration and allows individualization.

Its analysis from now on passed in manners.

Some of its proposals can seem strange, as the explanation to be given according to it to a child who asks how he was born: “because you wanted to be born” ( the difficulty in living ). However that shows the importance which it attaches to the word in the construction industry individuals.
