Saturday, April 9th, 2011
Parents are not the only relatives who influence
their children. As psychoanalysts, teachers, and
pediatricians have noted, siblings profoundly shape
children’s emotional lives and psychic development.
However, their influence has been marginalized in
some psychological circles. The speakers will discuss
people’s experiences and fantasies of having (and not
having) siblings. They will present vivid case material
and broader thinking about these relationships
throughout the lifespan.
Dr. Juliet Mitchell will explain why psychoanalysts
have privileged vertical (parent-child) over lateral
(sibling) relationships, the consequences of such a
bias, and the implications of taking brothers and
sisters seriously. She will address these dynamics
intra-psychically, inter-personally, and globally. Dr. Jill
Miller will then present clinical material in which
lateral dynamics feature prominently. She will
describe the inner lives of these individuals and her
approach to communicating with them. Dr. Karen
Gilmore will then discuss both papers. She will
interweave the theoretical with the clinical and
provide observations and questions that will
enhance the group discussion.
Ample time will be allotted for audience
participation.
