title: Psychotherapeutic intervention with mothers and children in day care.
abstract: The increasing use of day care permits opportunities for early intervention with children whose behavior indicates developing problems. Since these usually reflect difficulties in the relationships between children and parents, a relatively brief child-led intervention involving the parent, which appears helpful and effective, is described and illustrated with case examples.
