Extract

This paper is based on 66 child guidance cases. Children under 7 years were excluded because my Rorschach experience with them is too slight. All had psychotherapeutic treatment, mainly analytical, some had purely permissive play therapy, some combined this with analytical treatment. A few were treated indirectly through therapy of the parents. I have included some adults, parents of clinic cases, and one teacher.
