My Brains Not Broken

AUGUST 15, 2023

The other morning, I went for a run. I’m training for a half-marathon (my first one ever – please send some positive vibes my way!), so some of my runs are getting progressively longer.

There are certainly some less-than-ideal stories that both patients and providers could share around childhood obesity. From the nine-year-old whose primary care provider told him (in his recollection) that he was going to get diabetes and die to the 17-year-old who walked away thinking that being in the 99 th percentile for BMI was fine, it is clear that obesity is a tough topic for all involved.

● In a testament to the awful breadth of laws that allow people to report child abuse anonymously, in New Jersey someone accused of filing a false anonymous report to harass his ex-girlfriend actually claimed as a defense that, even if he made the call (which he denies), there is no such thing as a harassing call to the family police in New Jersey – because that state’s law gives immunity from liability to anyone who makes such a call.

In addition to the nature of the work, which often requires significant concentration and time, there are a multitude of important logistical and practical issues that also require attention. Like many other health care professionals, psychologists must make split-second decisions that can have significant ethical implications.
