[22 pages]
Winnicott emerges from the “Controversial Discussions” as the middle way between Mrs. Klein and Miss Freud. As a pediatrician by training, he is known for his down to earth, pragmatic, and kind approach to children and their parents. He had a BBC radio show and spoke in common language to teachers, juvenile reformers, parents, public health providers, and others invested in families.
