GOVINDAMA, Yolande. The suffering of the young child mistreated and his parents. Estilos clin. [online]. 2015, vol.20, n.1, pp. 43-58. ISSN 1415-7128.  http://dx.doi.org/10.11606/issn.1981-1624.v20i1p43-58.

The french statistics show the extent of the mistreament of children aged from 0 to 3 years that often goes unnoticed due to the denial of the parents, which contaminates them. The link between parents and children of that age still is so physically alienating that they cannot express their own suffering. For the mistreating parents, the reviral of their own childhood experiences cannot allow them to differentiate themselves from their child. This parent-child link, built from the mechanism of projective and pathological identification, implicates on a singular therapeutic device for the treatment parents-child. This singular device allows differentiate the real child from that alienating relation. This will be illustrated through one clinical case.

Keywords : mistreatment; young child; treatment parents - child.
