This story talks about a study in which children are subjected to a 3 hour treatment session in which they are gradually exposed to their fears and taught to change their thinking and behavior. The program has an immediate 60% success rate, and a 75% rate after a one year follow-up. It also mentions the importance of parental guidance in helping the children stay on the right path after treatment.
