Abstract
The need for a balance in addressing cultural differences and similarities in the diagnostic assessment and treatment of black children is the major focus of this article. Selected illustrations from the literature and from the author's professional experiences point out some of the pitfalls, as well as steps to take that will promote accuracy in diagnosis and effective treatment. Several identified reference points are viewed to be of considerable significance in our multicultural society, and are advocated as warranting attention in the psychiatric care of any child.

It shall probably be found that the poor arc even less ready to part with their neuroses than the rich, and the hard life that awaits them when they recover has no attraction, and in them gives them more claim to the help of others.
