Abstract A physiological boundary relationship between Japanese mothers and children encountered with the socio-cultural system has rooted a feeling of dependency and reliance on the society, which deny self-identity and independency. This system raises hate between the individual and the family and society. The current study investigates the parents and children's attitude toward treatment, focusing on the children's attitude toward treating their parents and the children's inner feelings toward family. Fifty-nine Japanese elementary school students have been given the Father/Mother-Child Relationship Inventory (FMCI) and the Kinetic Family Drawing Test (K.F.D). Children have shown a dependent common attitude; and aggressive inner feelings toward parents. Children have had such double-injured, tendency of dependency and lack of family warm relations. Hence, those children who have shown rebellious, strange and refusal attitudes toward their parents are considered to be normally reacting in a healthy way.
