Freud Society

Famous quotes containing the words freud and/or society:

    I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father’s protection.
    —Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)

    Modern children were considerably less innocent than parents and the larger society supposed, and postmodern children are less competent than their parents and the society as a whole would like to believe. . . . The perception of childhood competence has shifted much of the responsibility for child protection and security from parents and society to children themselves.
    David Elkind (20th century)
