Abstract
Borderline children have made a partial commitment to the independent reality of the external world, but their integration with external reality is markedly incomplete. The Borderline Study Group, working with a patient group of eight children, focuses on the commitment to the narcissistic world of the pleasure ego, as expressed in the childrens' fantasies. The notion that borderline conditions reflect an incomplete transition from the pleasure to the reality ego suggests important directions for study.
