Neil Altman believes that whilst there is great human suffering and anxiety provoked by Covid-19, it also provides an opportunity for children to grow emotionally and cognitively. In this hopeful and stimulating interview with Jane O'Rourke, he urges us to be brave about what we talk about with children so they can be helped to avoid the blindspots adults have over issues such as racism and inequality. Neil also discusses the links between psychoanalysis and the progressive education movement.
