The unfortunate appellation 'schizophrenogenic mother' had its origin there, a term most effectively trounced as conspicuously unconstructive, by Hill (1955)in another very helpful publication. 41 Having decided upon the importance of affording patients and nurses consistent and dependable relationships in a 'domestic' setting wherein words could be used to express feelings explicitly, from the outset I endeavoured to place NHS patients in private psychoanalysis! Winnicott, though otherwise very encouraging, was unenthusiastic about my sending patients out daily to analysis.

Father was quiet and softly spoken. When he spoke, he stood up, to attention, as if he were a good boy reporting - a witness to some misdeed - to his headmaster.
