title: Pediatrics and child sexual abuse: where we've been and where we're going.
abstract: Those of us in pediatrics who take a special interest in child abuse have had a unique opportunity to watch an important body of knowledge develop. Our challenge for the next century is to continue to build our knowledge base, to train young physicians in the care of abused and neglected children, and to remain committed to the concept that every child in this country deserves a wholesome, healthy childhood.
