The Squiggle Foundation Public Lecture Programme 2008
 

Autumn Term 2008
 
Behaviour unbecoming: development, disruption and de-moralisation.
Saturday 22nd November 2008 to be held at Primrose Hill Community Association
29 Hopkinson’s Place, Fitzroy Road, London, NW1 (map) at 3.00pm
 
“It was almost by chance that I was in a good position to give Help at the very beginning and before a moral attitude towards the boy’s delinquency had had time to become organized…” (Winnicott, 1953).
 
With this quotation in mind Adrian Sutton writes: “Behaviour unbecoming” indicates explicitly that behaviour is considered improper in a moral sense and implicitly that the behaviour has not become what would not only be acceptable but expectable. The paper will present examples of clinical work in a general child psychiatry service where the task has been to help shape the care of children with such profound disturbances. The approach is based on understanding the developmental significance of manifest behaviour whilst taking full account of its impact on those striving to behave reasonably in response to the “demandingness” of the child. It can be a demoralising task: progress relies on being able to de-moralise, take a developmental stance, and provide an optimally facilitating environment for the child’s maturational processes.
 

Dr. Sutton is a Consultant in Child & Family Psychiatry and Psychotherapy at the Winnicott Centre, Manchester and an Honorary Senior Teaching Fellow at the University of Manchester. He trained in medicine and general psychiatry at University College Hospital, London before undertaking specialist training in infant, child and adolescent psychiatry under Dr. Susanna Isaacs Elmhirst at the Child Guidance Training Centre, London. He also holds the post of Director of Studies and Curriculum Lead for Ethics & Law at Manchester Medical School. His many publications reflect the variety of his interests and include “Authority, Autonomy, Responsibility and Authorisation” (1997).
