N2  - The sexual revolution and procreatics are remodelling the contours of postmodern parenthood. This article examines the notion of the “wanted child ,” confronting it with the logics of procreatics. The instrumentalisation of the child to be born confronts us with the place that early prenatal losses occupy in individual and collective psychology. Psychopathological clinical treatment of perinatal survival offers a path to measure such effects. The “wanted child ” of procreatic society is considered not to benefit from the highly secured welcome into the world that is often believed to prevail. Quite the contrary, it would appear to be exposed to a form of social violence. Such data deserve to be taken into account in order to understand postmodern parenthood
