Early detection of babies or children mental disorders enables specific diagnosis and care in the very early life of the distressed children. It is critical to make all physicians able to identify early signs. Autism, depression, anguage and learning disorders are pathologies whose early diagnosis enables early care thus limiting the negative impact on child and family lives. In the specific context of child abuse, it is our duty to detect alarming signs as soon as possible to fully protect the abused baby or child.
