Summary:IT IS a real pleasure for me to be discussing pediatrics with pediatricians. More than any other group, you share my educational background and my earliest dedication as a physician. And, although my period of actual pediatric practice was rather brief, I feel that I share with you a basic orientation and a store of common experiences.

One article used the phrase "unhappy pediatrician syndrome"—partly but not entirely in jest. I confess that I am not altogether unhappy with this kind of unhappiness.
