Abstract: This scientific paper explores the role of psychoanalysis in understanding parent-child dynamics in school development. This paper points out that psychoanalysis can help explain why some parent-child relationships are more conducive to academic success than others, and how parents can help their children succeed academically. In other words, psychoanalysis can help parents better understand and respond appropriately to their children's emotional needs, as well as allow parents to be aware of their own emotions and the influences that may interfere with their ability to create a healthy relationship with their child. Furthermore, this article suggests that psychoanalysis can help illuminate the dynamics of parent-child conflict, which can often affect academic achievement. In summary, this scientific paper concludes that psychoanalysis can make an important contribution to understanding the dynamics of the parent-child relationship in school success. Parents can benefit from a better understanding of their own and their child's emotions, as well as a better ability to resolve conflict, to help their children succeed academically. However, the paper also emphasizes that psychoanalysis should not be seen as the only method of understanding parent-child dynamics and that each situation is unique and requires individual analysis.
