[Family model and mental anorexia. Part II. Intergenerational pattern of relationships].
Concepts analysing intergenerational transmission in families of anorectic patients are presented. The researches indicate that the problems associated with the autonomy process in patients with anorexia nervosa may be rooted in experiences of former generations and connected with specific patterns of family relationships. From among these, mourning and suffering bonds, sense of justice, value of sacrifice philosophy and particular delegations addressed to daughters seem essential. Such a selection emphasises co-evolutional character of separation-individuation process and justifies the place of family therapy in therapeutic process.
