'''The Child''' [[archetype]], is an important [[Jungian archetypes|Jungian archetype]] in [[Jungian psychology]], first suggested by [[Swiss]] [[psychologist]], [[Carl Jung]]. Recently, author [[Caroline Myss]] suggested Child, amongst four the Survival Archetypes (Victim, Prostitute, and Saboteur), present in all of us. It ranges from "childish to childlike longing for the innocent, regardless of age", as mentioned in her work, ''Sacred Contracts'', which talk of the presence many aspects of the Child archetype, ranging from the ''Wounded Child'', ''Abandoned or Orphan Child'', ''Dependent Child'', ''Magical/Innocent Child'', ''Nature Child'', to the ''Divine Child'' and ''Eternal Child'' <ref>[http://www.myss.com/library/contracts/four_archs.asp The Four Archetypes of Survival] ''[[Caroline Myss]]''.</ref><ref>[http://www.myss.com/library/contracts/three_archs.asp A Gallery of Archetypes] ''[[Caroline Myss]]''.</ref><ref>[http://www.online.pacifica.edu/pgl/stories/storyReader$517 The Divine Child archetype in Jungian psychological] McGurn, P.

Jung placed 'the ''child'' (including the child hero)' in a list of archetypes incorporating 'the chief among them...like milestones of the [[individuation]] process'.<ref>Jung, in J. Jacobi, ''Complex, Archetype, Symbol'' (London 1959) p. 113-4</ref> Jungians exploring the [[hero]] myth have noted that 'over and over again one hears a tale describing the hero's miraculous but humble birth', and have considered that '"it represents our efforts to deal with the problem of growing up, aided by the illusion of an eternal fiction"'.<ref>Paul Radin, quoted in Joseph L. Henderson, "Ancient Myths and Modern Man", Carl Jung ed., ''Man and his Symbols'' (London 1978) p. 101-3</ref> Thus for Jung, '"the child is potential future"', with the archetype 'symbolising the whole personality in its development from primordial unconsciousness to ego consciousness to self'.<ref>Robert A. Segal, ''Theorizing about Myth'' (1999) p. 84</ref>

Others have warned however of the dangers posed to the parents by 'the "archetype of the Divine Child"...an emotional pull toward imagining an extraordinary potential contained in the infant'.<ref>Polly Young-Eisendrath, ''Women and Desire'' (London 2000) p. 106</ref> Where this becomes too strong, 'the child is co-opted into an arrangement whereby he or she is to provide the parents with a certain magic...the Divine Child'.<ref>Young-Eisendrath, p. 107</ref> The growing child 'caught up in the complex [as] adult believes that she or he is especially ''wonderful'', as ''wonderful'' as an idealized child...unable to see the problems with feeling like the king - superior, special, or unique'.<ref>Young-Eisendrath, p. 118</ref>
 
  +
<br>

== References ==
Even where impacting less acutely, the archetype may produce 'a man who remains too long in adolescent psychology, generally associated with a strong unconscious attachment to the mother (actual or symbolic). Positive traits are spontaneity and openness to change';<ref>Mario Jacoby, ''The Analytic Encounter'' (Canada 1984) p. 118</ref> negative, the emergence of a 'superficially entrancing but basically immature child-man who is incapable of commitment or generativity...an identification with the Divine Child, Mama's darling'.<ref>Roberte H. Hopcke, ''A Guided Tour of the Collected Works of C. G. Jung'' (Boston 1989) p. 108</ref> His 'female counterpart is the ''puella'', an "eternal girl" with a corresponding attachment to the father-world'.<ref>Jacoby, p. 118</ref>
 
 
==Prospective and retrospective==
 
 
Jung was always concerned with the possibility of one's over-identification with the [[Persona (psychology)|persona]] - with the man who 'violently sundered himself from his original character in the interests of some arbitrary persona more in keeping with his ambitions. He has thus become unchildlike and artificial, and has lost his roots'.<ref>C. G. Jung, ''The Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious'' (London 1996) p. 162</ref> Some remedy can be provided by the way 'the "child" archetype has a central part to play in assuaging the fear of loss of connection with the past'<ref>Jane O'Connor, ''The Cultural Significance of the Child Star'' (2008) p. 101</ref>: in its retrospective aspect, 'one of the functions of the child archetype is to recall the experiences and emotions of childhood'<ref>John Izod, ''Myth, Mind and the Screen'' (2001) p. 88</ref> to the adult mind.
 
 
Conversely, however, in its prospective role, 'for Jung the child archetype was a living symbol of future potentialities that bring balance, unity, and vitality to the conscious personality'<ref>R. J. Crowley/J. C. Mills, ''Therapeutic Metaphors for Childhood and the Child Within'' (2001) p. 33</ref> - so that 'the mythic child symbolizes the lifelong process of psychological maturation'.<ref>Segal, p. 84</ref>
 
 
==In literature and media==
 
 
{{main|Archetype#Archetypes in literature}}
 
 
The child archetype is portrayed in literature in various ways. It can take the form of a child who displays adult-like qualities giving, for example, wise advice to their friends or vice-versa (like the character Raymond in the film ''[[Rain Man]]'').
 
 
More generally, 'the [[Child Stars|child star]] can be conceptualized as a modern manifestation of the ancient archetype of the wonder-child'.<ref>O'Connor, p. 101</ref>

Noah 500 years old begets Shem

And it cometh to pass that mankind have begun to multiply on the face of the ground,

and daughters have been born to them,
and sons of God see the daughters of men that they [are] fair,
and they take to themselves women of all whom they have chosen
(The fallen ones were in the earth in those days and even afterwards
when sons of God come in unto daughters of men)
and they have borne to them --
they [are] the Gibborim, who, from aeon, [are] the men of the Shem

And YHWH saith, `My Spirit doth not strive in man -- to the age;

in their erring they [are] flesh:'
and his days have been an 120 years.
And YHWH seeth that abundant [is] the wickedness of man in the earth,
and every imagination of the thoughts of his heart only evil all the day;
and YHWH repenteth that He hath made man in the earth,
and He grieveth Himself -- unto His heart.
And YHWH saith, `I wipe away man whom I have prepared from off the face of the ground,
from man unto beast, unto creeping thing, and unto fowl of the heavens,
for I have repented that I have made them.'
And Noah found grace in the eyes of YHWH

And the earth is corrupt before God, and the earth is filled [with] violence.

And God seeth the earth, and lo, it hath been corrupted,
for all flesh hath corrupted its way on the earth.

And God said to Noah[¶ 1],

`An end of all flesh hath come before Me,
for the earth hath been full of violence from their presence;
and lo, I am destroying them with the earth.
`Make for thyself an ark of gopher-wood;
And I, lo, I am bringing in the deluge[¶ 2] (מַבּוּל) of waters on the earth to destroy all flesh,

Builds Barge 300*50*30 pygmy cubits with upper, lower, and middle stories

from a single tree, that he planted, which took 20 yrs to grow[¶ 3]

And the whole earth is of one pronunciation, and of the same words,

and it cometh to pass, in their journeying from the east, that they find a valley in the land of Shinar, and dwell there;
and they say each one to his neighbour, `Give help, let us make bricks, and burn [them] thoroughly:'
and the brick is to them for stone, and the bitumen hath been to them for mortar.
And they say, `Give help, let us build for ourselves a city and tower, and its head in the shamim,
and make for ourselves a Shem, lest we be scattered over the face of all the earth.'

And YHWH cometh down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men have builded;

and YHWH saith, `Lo, the people [is] one, and one pronunciation [is] to them all,
and this it hath dreamed of doing; and now, nothing is restrained from them of that which they have purposed to do.
come, go overflow there shore which not hear enoch
shore people scattered YHWH there upon face of all the earth

And YHWH doth scatter them from thence over the face of all the earth, and they cease to build the city;

therefore hath [one] called its name Babel, for there hath YHWH overflow the shore's of all the earth,
and from thence hath YHWH scattered them over the face of all the earth.

And Noah remaineth a man of the ground, and planteth a vineyard,

and drinketh of the wine, and is drunken, and uncovereth himself in the midst of the tent.
And Ham, father of Canaan, seeth the nakedness of his father, and declareth to his two brethren without.
And Shem taketh -- Japheth also -- the garment, and they place on the shoulder of them both,
and go backward, and cover the nakedness of their father; and their faces [are] backward, and their father's nakedness they have not seen.

And Noah awaketh from his wine, and knoweth that which his young son hath done to him,

and saith: `Cursed [is] Canaan, Servant of servants he is to his brethren.'
And he saith: `Blessed of YHWH my God [is] Shem, And Canaan is servant to him.
God doth give beauty to Japheth, And he dwelleth in tents of Shem, And Canaan is servant to him.
