Anna: Father
built 119 days ago
As Anna began analyzing more and more children, it became apparent that her analysis of children differed from her father's analysis of adults. This very much pleased him. She used different techniques with the children and refuted her father's Little Hans analysis. Her father stated that "symptoms give us our bearings when we make our diagnosis." But children's symptoms, Anna noted, are not the same as those of adults. They are related to particular developmental stages, and they are often transitory in subject.

Much like her idol, the fabled Marilyn Monroe, the life of Anna Nicole Smith was destined to be tragically short. Far from a fairy tale, the story of Smith’s life read like a page of pulp fiction: abandoned by her father at two, raised in the backwaters of Texas, and shipped back and forth between relatives all through childhood. And yet – somehow, this lonely little girl, miraculously and against all odds, eventually went on to follow in Monroe’s footsteps to become a world-famous model and celebrity....

Anna didn't get along with her brothers and sisters very well. She felt she was boring and not "part of them". In addition, she felt especially close to her father. She recalled that "all of my family went off in a boat and left me at home, either because the boat was too full or I was 'too little.' This time I did not complain and my father, who was watching the scene, praised me and comforted me. That made me so happy that nothing else mattered." Her father ... shared the same affection for Anna. In The Interpretation of Dreams book he wrote that Annerl had a masculine appetite and aggression, and is beautified with naughtiness (Young-Bruehl, 1994). As she got older, he was proud of her intellectual interest and dissatisfaction with feminine activities.

Upon the death of her father, William M.S. Lindsey, in 1939, Anna took over management of the family ranch, a bold move for that time. She oversaw its operation until her death in 1995.
