Scope and Contents
" "This appears to be a reaction to her mother's fostering and mollycoddling. The mother appears to be convinced that her daughter is physcially and nervously much below par and even during a short interview it was obvious that she constantly strengthens these tendencies in her daughtr, so much so that the girl herself is now convinced that she is unable to stand up to everyday life". Dr confirms - spoilt by mother, complains of tiredness and backache. PC - very decent family, give no trouble."
