    Do you find it easier to work with children more than adults?

    Whats the most interesting case you have ever worked on?

    Since you have been practicing for 25 years have you noticed as time goes on a difference in cases?

    Over the 25 years you have been a pediatric therapist, has there been one case that stuck in your head the most? A case that taught you a lesson or motivated you to act upon something (a case that affected you personally)?

    What was the most common case 25 years ago compared to the most common case today? Has it gotten worse or better over time?

    1) Does it require any special skills or temperance to deal with children instead of adults? (i.e. more patience, humor, etc.)

    2) What sort of courses can be taken in high school to prepare someone hoping to take up a pediatric job?
