This study demonstrates that Freudian psychoanalysis, applied to children, is not permissive, but castrative; in addition, it is normative, and actually a tool for forging the ideal consumer child within a consumer culture that is based on the economic paradigm of total consumption.Today, we have to make a clear choice, as parents, educators or child psychologists, if we want to follow the bioenergetic truth of children's innate emotional and sexual response, or the mythic projections of a 'cultural' conditioning system called psychoanalysis that was set in the world to veil the essential, that is, the fact that fully erotic children are bad consumers, and thus by definition bad citizens in a society that is based not upon love but upon codependence, not upon free choice relations, but the forceful adaptation of children to consumerism as the religion of the 21st century.As educators and psychologists sensitive to the emotional manipulation and abuse of children, in a society that confuses sex with violence, while violence is exactly the repression of sexual communication, we need to be pro-active regarding the free emotional and sexual life of children, instead of streamlining children to the needs of the industry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Fritz Walter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1517334438\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781517334437\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/13\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 94\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.33lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.23d","brand":"Peter Fritz Walter","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48153728221439,"sku":"9781517334437","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dfdfb1c0-5738-45be-82ca-411630d46687.jpg?v=1770785430","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/normative-psychoanalysis-peter-fritz-walter-9781517334437","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
