One of the main aspects of the observation of a baby according to Esther Bick’s method consists in giving a meaning to whatever the baby expresses. The author borrows the concept of the “principle of charity” from linguistic philosophy to give an account of this requirement, which is reminiscent of the requirement of the anthropologist to give credit to the tribes he/she is exploring so that their expressions, whatever their nature, have a meaning.
