RAMOS, Maria Beatriz Jacques  e  MAGGI, Noeli Reck. The symptom as an expression of subjectivity in children with learning difficulties:: theotherness as a facilitating factor. Estud. psicanal. [online]. 2011, n.35, pp.65-73. ISSN 0100-3437.

This paper presents some reflections on the influence of an enabling environment in which children in situations of risk live and hardship in the development and initial schooling. It points culture and family structure as related elements of subjectivity in children and emphasizes the role of intersubjectivity in the unveiling of symptoms that keep them unable to operate on the reality using logical and significant structures. Diagnosed as having learning problems and unable to take ownership of knowledge, these children survive the challenges of formal schooling supported by clinical follow up. To analyze the constitution of subjectivity in the initial development and its impact on the ability of thinking and acting, the theoretical contributions of psychoanalysis were considered, especially in reference to Freud, Lacan, Winnicott and Bion.
