A Relationship of Maturity

Psychoanalysis has it's origins with Doctors Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung. While Jung was able to build off of the other's work, Freud was very set in his way of looking at the world. These two doctors who had the privelage of meeting and corresponding with each other experienced life before both World Wars and thus with Freud being Jewish while Jung was not felt a resentment and entitlement towards him. It is no different than a classic relationship conflict in today's society.

People in general, develop personal authority figures (father and mother figures) to help aid them in progressing through life. For some pairs they are able to grow together so that they come to stand on even ground and become more of friends rather than parent/child. While others are not capable of this. In some cases the "child" chooses not to continue to grow and the "parent" chooses consciously or subconsciously to place a barrier or boundary on the "child". This holds true for the relationship as it exists in the film "A Dangerous Method" and throughout reality as we know it.

There are examples throughout real life where a "child" is held back due to the "parent" having an inability to mature emotionally and allow the "child" to progress. It comes a shame that we are reliant on our personal authority figures to help us become the people that we have the potential to be and are stunted by them due to them not having their own authority figures.
