Abstract

We appreciate the thoughtful and supportive comments from Dr. Masters1 and agree that coercive parent–child relationships were often what was addressed and modified during hospitalization. Lowering seclusion and restraint rates by prohibiting them, without lowering rates of aggression, is not the desired outcome. As we noted in our paper, evidence-based treatments are sorely needed for young children whose severe and destructive outbursts get them psychiatrically hospitalized.
