Infant crying has been vastly studied as a diagnostic indicator of neurologic disorders. However, contributes from mother-infant interaction theory suggest, even though indirectly, the value of this manifestation - crying - in the context of the mother-infant relationship. Lebovici underlines the importance of crying in this context when he says: «it is enough to imagine what would be the parents task without infant crying: they would have to be constantly guessing when the baby is hungry, when he is dirty, and what are his various needs and discomforts. Undoubtedly, a more calm and less anxious situation, at first view, would be a more preoccupying reality, because it would constrain parents to be permanently interrogating themselves about the baby condition.» (Lebovici, 1987). The present theorical reflection attempts to frame infant crying in different theorical models and, from those approaches, to discuss its value and function, in mother-infant interaction domain.
