title: [Mother-child relationship: the kangaroo syndrome].
abstract: The author describes among some adults a special clinical form of mother-child relation in which bond between both partners, without being fusional, remains very strong and can be likened with the larva relation among marsupials. He calls to mind the hard therapeutic problems given by persistency at adult age of this complementary type relation.
