Du förstår väl att det hade varit jättekonstigt om dom hade slickat sina tallrikar, nästan lika konstigt som att dom inte fyllde och startade diskmaskinen innan dom tog livet av sig? Så gör faktiskt fint folk, så dom var nog inte så stiff upper lip som vi har trott. Dom var kanske alldeles vanliga. Men med lite mer otur och lite skörare än dom flesta.
Ja, trots hög utbildning så tror jag knappast det var så fina fasader i Lundamiljöns salonger som det gärna anspelas på.
Finns snarare ingenting som framkommit om dem som nåt märkvärdigt folk. Tvärtom.
Det finns däremot en roll som de misslyckas med: Föräldraskapet.
Läser just nu följande ord ur en doktorsavhandling som är tänkvärda när det kommer till mfs för forskningen har vänt från att ha haft fokus på psykoser som anledning till prevention. Vilket jag är intresserad av - vad får normalt fungerande människor att hamna i diametralt motsatta änden av ett altrustiskt spekta?
Mad, bad or... deeply sad?
Citat:
The popular depictions of mothers who had killed their children within the context of prolonged child abuse and neglect are often rightly described as failing to care adequately for their children.
However, in my clinical experience of working with mothers who had been diagnosed with mental illness there was often no previous abuse of the child.
Instead mothers appeared to have been engaged in caring for their children prior to the filicide and to have been considered by others as good mothers. This clinical picture is consistent with research in the maternal filicide literature of women with a diagnosis of mental illness:
‘…before the homicidal act quite unexpectedly occurred, most of these mothers were reported to have been ‘perfect’ mothers who took good, even meticulous care of their children and were controlled and restrained in their relations with other people’ (p. 233; Haapasalo & Petäjä, 1999).
I was therefore interested in researching the subject of maternal filicide with a method that would allow me to develop greater understanding of a poorly understood subject."
