Abstract
Arthur was brought to the hospital by his parents, Newman and Loretta, after Arthur reported that he was hearing voices that were telling him to hurt himself. This is not the first time that Arthur has heard such voices, but this time his parents felt that he was “taking them more seriously” than he has done in the past. They were concerned that he would listen to the voices and actually take action to hurt himself.
