Abstract
- The authors reflect on the growth attenuation research results of Gunther and Dickema, and also of Brosco and Feudtner. A perspective is offered regarding the medical community's involvement for these issues regarding quality of life for the disabled. Involuntary institutionalization and sterilization are some historically regrettable medical solutions.
