[简答题]What to Do When the Patient Says, ’Please Don’t Tell Mom’
Some years ago, in the candor (坦白) of the exam room, a seventh-grade boy told me that he didn’t really have friends at school, and that he sometimes found himself being picked on. I gave’ him the pediatric (儿科的) line on bullying: it shouldn’t be tolerated, and there are things schools can do about it. Let’s talk to your parents, let’s have your parents talk to the school. And he was horrified. He shook his head and asked me please not to interfere, and above all not to say a word to his mother, who was out in the waiting room because I had asked her to give us some privacy.
He wouldn’t have told me this at all, he said, except he thought our conversation was private. The situation at school wasn’t all that bad; he could handle it. He wasn’t in any danger, wasn’t getting hurt, and he was just a little lonely. His parents, he said, thought that he was fine, that he had lots of friends, and he wanted to keep it
