Our 14-year-old son seems to have a built-in 'fail-safe' device. He seems determined to engineer failure in both school-work and games although he is quite capable of success. If we push him harder he will resent us - if we don't, he will just 'drop-out.' In today's programme the parents of this boy - as well as the boy himself and his younger sister - discuss the problem described in this letter with Dr Wendy Greengross, Dr James Hemming and Chairman Jean Metcalfe

The story of Brahms and Clara Schumann written by Beata Bishop
'It is hard after 40 years of faithful service, or whatever you wish to call my relationship to you, to become nothing else than "one more bad experience." Well, it must be borne. I am used to being lonely.'

David Sinclair as Brahms, Hilda Schroder as Clara, William Sleigh as Narrator.
