ABSTRACT
A man called to speak about his grandson whom he liked a lot and about whom he was rather concerned; aged eight, the grandson had little interest in school, even though he had a sharp and curious mind. The phantasmatic place of the mother is singular because it is often overlooked that, as a former daughter, she is the one who makes the psychic development of the son possible: it is the presence of incestuous projections that liberates the mother while playing a role in the sexualisation for the child. A situation had been established whose outcome was unknown, but one on which the destiny of entry into the oedipal complex and, subsequently, its resolution, would depend. A little later, the analyst saw the child who presented a form of phobia of the written trace that stood in contrast with his bright and questioning mind, inventive even, as the analyst was gradually to discover.
