The clinical work with children and adolescents is complex, requiring updated theories and interventions that go beyond classical approaches. Psychoanalytic intervention refers to the analyst's actions that produce effects in the therapeutic process, contributing to the construction and subjective transformation of the child. The author emphasizes the importance of considering the social production of subjectivity, where the child's psychism is shaped by multiple groups of belonging and social devices. The analyst's interventions must be tailored to the unique needs of each child, taking into account the family, school, and social networks. The author also highlights the need for self-reflection and awareness of one's own desires and ideologies to avoid canceling aspects of subjective production. A case example is presented, where the analyst must decide whether to help the child conform to the expectations of the school and parents or to challenge these expectations and support the child's individuality. The author questions what kind of subject is being built through these interventions, and whether the goal is to create a child who conforms to societal norms or one who is unique and authentic.
