Metaphor And Intersubjectivity: The Use Of Metaphor Within A Metaphor, Sara Jalbert
Metaphor And Intersubjectivity: The Use Of Metaphor Within A Metaphor, Sara Jalbert

Unaware, parents may develop a checklist of caregiving approaches to the baby. The infant tells the adult directly what they need, and waits for the parent to respond. Infant talk may change from soft and quiet to loud and aggressive; coos and cries become crying and screams as the infant’s caregiver—communicating the intensity of emotion, urgency of their request, or their frustration with varied and sometimes inadequate, failed, or missing caregiving patterns the infant has no choice but to accept.
