In which of Sullivan’s stages would you place Brian at the end of the case? Explain.
What will be an ideal response?
He is at the end of the childhood stage or the beginning of the juvenile era, as would be appropriate for his age. He may be at the beginning of the juvenile era because the case indicates that the good Brian and bad Brian (good me/bad me) personifications have already been fused into a single self dynamism. This usually happens during the childhood stage and it is already accomplished. However, he may still be in the childhood stage because he still has imaginary playmates in the form of the “ghost monsters.”
