[The disruptive child].
Beware not to confuse talk about children with children's talk: this should be the golden rule for childhood professionals. Agitation and somatization disrupt the functioning of what is called the functional spheres. The child eats poorly, sleeps poorly, and has problems controlling his sphincters. He presents symptoms that the growing importance of education in today's modern world can no longer neglect. The diversity of the circumstances in which the child is recognized as "disruptive" shows just how much the borders between children and adults are permeable. The disruptive child is also a child disturbed by the adult world in which he is evolving. The author supports his hypotheses with several examples from his practice as a psychoanalyst.
