    Public primary care clinics face moral dilemmas in treating children while fostering family self-reliance. Dependency-inducing practices should be limited to promote healthcare autonomy and avoid repeating colonial mistakes.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatrics
    • Public Health
    • Medical Ethics

    Background:

    • Public primary care clinics encounter moral tension between addressing children's medical needs and promoting family self-reliance.
    • Current practices may inadvertently foster dependency, impacting long-term health autonomy.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe and demonstrate dependency-inducing practices in pediatric primary care.
    • To discuss the ethical considerations of these practices and suggest modifications.
    • To advocate for enhancing family self-reliance in clinic settings.

    Main Methods:

    • Descriptive analysis of common clinic practices.
    • Ethical discussion of dependency-inducing versus self-reliance-enhancing approaches.
    • Case examples illustrating the moral tension and potential solutions.

    Main Results:

    • Identified common practices like free services and appointment follow-ups can induce dependency.
    • Highlighted exceptional circumstances where dependency-inducing practices may be appropriate.
    • Proposed changes in service delivery to prioritize family self-reliance.

    Conclusions:

    • Clinic services must be reformed to actively enhance, not undermine, family self-reliance.
    • Failure to promote self-reliance risks repeating historical patterns of dependency, akin to colonialism.
    • Shifting focus towards empowering families is crucial for sustainable child healthcare.
