This question is designed to see how you might champion a patient whose parent(s) is labeling his or her child with full expectation of guiding your diagnosis and treatment. The medicine involved is straightforward, but the social danger is bigger than you, and the interviewer wants to know if you appreciate that.

"The welfare of the patient comes first, and the bigger danger is not the condition that is suspected or being reported, but the 'suspect' and the 'report' themselves. I feel such things constitute abuse and I would report this immediately to the appropriate child protection services."
