The article presents three therapeutic levels. This paper discusses cases where parents brought their children for evaluation or therapy but finds out that therapy was not after all needed. Reassurance of the methods applied in child care and rearing is the most immediate need these parents seek. They need to reassure themselves that their child is not growing differently from other children. Mental hygiene has aroused anxieties in parents and so often they need to be constantly reminded of the facts of child behaviors by a professional. These therapeutic levels are discussed more thoroughly in this presentation.
