Ricky, age 4 years, arrives in the clinic with his mother. Ricky lives with his mother and father, who

100 miles away. Both parents are of average height and in good health. Rickyàmother mentions
that Ricky often expresses frustration, particularly in regard to food. Conflict over food occurs every
day. Mealtime is a battle to get him to eat, unless his mother feeds him. Rickyàbaby sister seems to

concerned that he will become malnourished.
