Abstract

The personality of the asthmatic child, and his relation with his mother-characterized by an absence of normal separation and individuation-is examined through scientific and literary sources. The familial milieu and various behavioral attitudes of the asthmatic patient are also considered. Various therapeutic approaches are discussed.
