[Conversations with parents of children with seizures].
When treating children with seizures, repeated and extensive talks with parents and child are an integrating part of diagnosis and therapy. The form of the conversation depends on its topic and the timing. From the physician's point of view, there are 3 forms of such conversations. 1. Informative, 2. counselling, 3. therapeutic. The subjects are in particular 1. getting the anamnestic data, 2. breaking the diagnosis to the parents and discussing the prognosis, 3. helping them in their confrontation with the "fate" of their child having epilepsy, 4. discussing special pedagogical and psycho-social problems. This kind of talk ranges from preventing faulty educational attitudes to intervening therapeutically within the patient's family.
