<br/><br/> The paper explores the question of infanticide from the vantage point of the authors’ clinical practice with mothers in prison and analyzes a clinical case in detail. It shows how infanticide may be viewed as a means of escaping a deep sense of grief, and is experienced as self-inflicted and performed in a deadly fusion with the child. This act appears to be the only way to externally present something which, from the primitive fusion, refers to a traumatic disillusion.
