Well, you know what?

That can be wrong.

And so, first of all, that's a total misunderstanding.

Second of all, it's not a psychological diagnosis.

Never was, there's always a pediatric diagnosis.

So the fact that they're trying to find a mental health issue, it's not about mental health issue, it's a child abuse thing, where you're doing something to the child,

Maybe you have a pattern of things that are wrong.

The child suffers.

I had a case once in Nebraska where they were saying that same kind of thing, you know, about the overuse thing.

And I said, every time that we poke somebody with a needle or we do something for them, that's in the medical record.

So I said, get a big box together of all the needles this kid ever endured and all this other stuff.

Put it in a big box and put it in front of the judge and say, if we assaulted somebody on the street with all that, how do you think that would be?

you know you think it you think it was assault um in point of fact you think that doctors were nice and safe and one of the discouraging parts for me has always been when you give a kid a shot or actually our nurses give the shots but you give a kid a shot and

And they, and the mom will say, thank the doctor.

And it's like, they just gave the kid a shot.

Don't make them think the doctor, you know, come on, it hurt.

They didn't like it.

You know, let's not be a hypocrite, you know, until the kids, you know, I mean, you know, it's nice enough to say goodbye, but you know, let's, let's not try to pretend it's something, but they're thinking the doctor's a safe place in a lot of ways we are.

But when you think about it, particularly say somebody's hospitalized, we hurt children.

We put IVs in them.
