Abstract
Timothy, a dark-haired child with large brown eyes, is noticeably small for nine years of age. He rarely smiles, does not have friends, and according to his mother, “will never be Mr. Popular.” In addition to problems at school and difficulties sleeping, Timothy has ulcerative colitis. Like thousands of other children, Timothy suffers from one of many forms of childhood psychopathology.
