Résumé : First of all, the author recalls that many deviating behaviours in children, such as nervosism, can only be clearly understood from mutltifactorial explicative schemes (somatic, psychic and social) with a mutual reinforcement of the operating factors (circular causalities). The therapeutic programs will have to take into account the most impeding operating factors, rather than focus directly on the factors coming first chronologically: for instance, it will sometimes be necessary to modify first the state of 'diffuse negative motivation' of a child. When the child accepts the existence of a treatment, direct action (psychomotricity, medication, etc.) can be combined with a guidance of the environment. Also, the author discusses the problem raised by children who refuse their treatment.
