Abstract
In many theories concerning the development of psychological illness, stress has been laid upon the difficulties encountered during the earliest period of life. The problems of feeding in infancy and early childhood have, in particular, been believed to colour if not actually to determine certain neurotic and psychotic behaviour.Keywords
