  A father's role in supporting his son's developing awareness of self
 
 
Title: A father's role in supporting his son's developing awareness of self
Author: Blatt, Jane
Appeared in: Infant observation
Paging: Volume 10 (2007) nr. 2 pages 173-182
Year: 2007-08
Contents: This paper traces the relationship between a baby and his father over the first two years of his life. Based primarily in the intimate bath time setting, it describes father's early containment and capacity to give his son space to explore his feelings of pleasure as well as fear and anger. The resultant early trust and support for later individuation contributes to the reciprocity shown in their bath play which illustrates the son's growing self-containment, curiosity and empathy.
