“Doc, I want you to evaluate my 13 year old son”
Parent: “Doc, I want you to evaluate my 13 year old son.”
Doc: “OK, he’s suffering from a transient psychosis with an intermettent rage disorder, punctuated by episodic radical mood swings, but his prognosis is good for a full recovery.”
Parent: “What does all that mean?”
Doc: “He’s 13.”
Parent: “How can you tell all that without even meeting him?”
Doc: “He’s 13.”
