<DIV>
<P><FONT size=2>Dear Colleagues,<BR>Years ago I heard the situation where one
child is singled out for abuse<BR>while others are raised adequately(as in the
infamous Eliza Izuierda case in<BR>New York City) referred to as "Cinderella
Syndrome," but in a search I now<BR>find that term is used for an array of other
situations that have nothing to<BR>do with child maltreatment.<BR><BR>Are people
aware of another term used to describe this situation, or any<BR>literature on
it? This query pertains to a case where a mother is torturing<BR>two of her
children but raising the others okay. The two are children of a<BR>different
father who is now out of the picture, but used to beat her. Any<BR>tips would be
most appreciated. You can contact me off-list at:<BR>LFontes@rcn.com if you
prefer.<BR>Thanks.<BR><BR>Lisa Fontes,
Ph.D.<BR><BR></FONT></P></DIV>
