Changing Positions: Helping Parents Look through the Child's Eyes
Sorensen, Pamela B.
Journal of Child Psychotherapy, v31 n2 p153-168 Aug 2005
This article describes a type of intervention with parents that attempts to stimulate and encourage empathic imagination in relation to their child's difficult behaviour. Some barriers to this process are explored in the context of wider cultural influences, particularly as they pertain to the USA. Basic cultural assumptions about children, their emotional life and development, are contrasted to basic assumptions in British Object Relations Theory. Examples of parent consultations are offered and theoretical reference points are suggested.
