Developmental-behavioral pediatrics (DBP) was once defined by giants, leaders who authored textbooks, set standards, and gave the specialty a clear identity. Today, the field is fragmented, misunderstood, and too often hostile to new ideas. My own career arc illustrates how inbreeding and isolation have hollowed out DBP, leaving children without advocates and institutions without direction.
