HYSLOP, JOHN (1950 - ) Child Psychologist. Ostracised in some quarters on account of his unsentimental approach, Hyslop has declared it his mission to ‘liberate society from the tyranny of its children and children from the expectations of their parents.' Arguing that many parents, lacking maturity and intelligence, use their children almost entirely to fulfil needs of their own, he advocates stringent assessment of child-rearing ability and, where necessary, separation.
