There are many barriers to adequate health care for psychosocial or conditions in children.The belief that childhood is a time free of stress and problems leads to denial that children can indeed have psychosocial or conditions.Family shame and the stigma of psychosocial or conditions are both barriers.Health-care providers often minimize parents' concerns about psychosocial or conditions.Even people who have a high level of health literacy tend to have low levels of literacy related to psychosocial or conditions.
