The school- room was packed with both fath- ers and mothers who came to hear Miss Margaret Burns of the Tor- onto ‘Pyschiatric Hospital discuss the problems of the child who is overly-protected in the first years of his or her life and the feeling of being “not wanted” or rejected, when a second child arrives in the household. Being overly-brotected some chil- dren tend to become docile and lose their self-confidence and through this they become afraid to com- pete 'with Other children at play. They become afraid to say “no” when asked to do something they do not wish to do for fear of los- ing love and friendship. When these same children reach adult- hood they tend to become frustrat- ed through the lack of self-express- ion and being afraid to disagree with her family and friends. This is where the Nursery and Kindergarten Schools prove to be of a great advantage to the young child. It takes them away from under their mother’s “protecting wing” and allows them the advan- tage of mixing with other children of their own age group and they are taight to compete with other children, therefore, they learn to have confidence in themselves.

Howeverrthrough the psychiatry treatment she learned to express herself more freely and to lead a happy normal life. A‘ lively discussion followed the showing of the film and many phases of child life were discussed.
