Are brain-damaged parents at risk of being stigmatised? Clinical experience shows family-patient but also professional-patient relations that are often unequal and alienating. It shows the risk of a break in the processes of mutual recognition between the patient and his family and of disruption in the succession of generations, but also the efforts made by all in struggling to preserve a sense of identity and symbolic references.
