“…In Brazil, as in other developing countries (OLASHORE et al, 2017), there are few public policies that establish mandatory screening to detect indicators of neurodevelopmental changes in children, either through mental health services or the public education system (BORDINI et al, 2015;COUTO & DELGADO, 2015;PAULA et al, 2016;BOSA & TEIXEIRA, 2017;TEIXEIRA et al, 2017;PAULA et al, 2018;FARIA et al, 2018). This lack of monitoring of mental health problems in childhood, combined with the clinical complexity of ROBERTSON et al, 2012;ZANON et al, 2014;LAKHAN & MAWSON, 2016;DENCKLA et al, 2017;FRANZ et al, 2017;TEIXEIRA et al, 2017).…”
