This article talks about the relationship between doctor, parent, and child. It says that in medical consultations, the pediatrician must use clear, honest, and respectful communication. When parents and doctors do not agree, the doctor should explain the medical situation in simple words and listen to the parent's concerns. The goal is to make decisions that protect the child’s health and well-being.
