While we share their injunctive to mindfully not throw out the baby (or body of the baby) with the ‘cognitive/ symbolic/ representational’ bath water, nevertheless we also argue for the inclusion of all that has been gained from the study of representational processes in the parent’s mind, including mentalization or reflective functioning, and the intergenerational data this work has spawned. We also argue for the relevance of careful microanaltyic observations of young infants and their caregivers, and attention to what has been gained from decades of research on this interactive process which is crucial to the development of the self and the emergence of infant-caregiver attachment patterns.
