Read: Maurice Sendak’s Where the Wild Things Are (1963) Watch: D.W. Winnicott  and videos of Sendak                                     Comment on Discussion board.      As you flip through the pages, notice the changes in the moon. What do you think this symbolized about the presence of the mother? How does it connect to Winnicott’s idea of the “Good Enough” mother? (Beware that the term “good enough” can be misleading. It doesn’t mean “sufficient” or “just ok.” Winnicott means it more as “deserving of,” as in deserving of being called a “good mother.”)
