Françoise Dolto has always placed the children and their problems, their development, their future at the center of her interests and her clinical work. In her conversations with social worker Ines Angelino, collected in the book When Parents Separate, she examines in depth the difficulties experienced by children of divorced parents and the possibilities for overcoming them more painlessly.
This book is not an essay on psychoanalysis and does not contain descriptions of clinical cases, but everything I have shared is based on my clinical experience. It is rather a book by a citizen, a psychoanalyst by profession, who is interested in the unconscious suffering of children, suffering that is always due to the unspoken or the lie told "for their good."
Françoise Dolto
Françoise Dolto (1908–1988) was a famous “doctor of child-rearing” known for her special insight into childhood, her sense of humor, and her unique talent for explaining psychoanalytic theory in simple terms. Dolto’s work significantly helped to change the status of children in modern society. By the time of her death, the versatile psychoanalyst had produced an abundant literature including theoretical texts for specialists and articles for the general public. All of Dolto’s writings, plus many unpublished texts and audio and video recordings made during her lectures and radio broadcasts, are now held at the Françoise Dolto Archives in Paris, France.
This site, open to internet users the world over in French, English, and Spanish, is designed to be a tool for everyone interested in Dolto’s theoretical and clinical research—parents, students, doctors, social workers, youth workers, and so on.
Along with a detailed biography of Dolto, the site contains an original album of photos. Under "Maisons Vertes", you’ll find a description and addresses of infant-and-parent "nurture centers". The site also features a list of documents held by the Archives, plus the latest news on publications, activities, and training based on Dolto’s work.
