TY - JOUR PY - 1981// TI - Observations on the First International Conference on Children of Holocaust Survivors JO - Family Process A1 - Peskin, H. SP - 391 EP - 394 VL - 20 IS - 4 N2 - This first large-scale gathering of children of Holocaust survivors revealed-more from the unanticipated group process of the conference than from its official proceedings-that the second generation seeks a collective identity subordinate neither to the older generation of parents nor of mental-health authorities. Vital moments of tension and reconciliation at the conference between the children's self-help movement (with a sizable membership of young mental-health professionals) and distinguished mental-health experts indicated the legitimacy of intergenerational encounter and the place that it will likely be accorded in future meetings.
