Torrance of Maple finally went to the Ontario Legislature and last week presented a brief to the Select Committee on Youth which has been con- ducting hearings in various parts of the province for the last year. Where do you go for help for an emotionally disturbed child? Mrs. Torrance complained to the committee of a “woe- ful lack of facilities” for the treatment of disturbed child- ren. During the years from age 7 to 15, her child was seen by private psychiatrists. child guidance clinics and psychologists. all of whom agreed she “had a problem” but none of whom offered treatment or advice to the parents on how to cope with the situation. Finally. a medical doctor with a strong interest in mental health told the fam- ily of Warrendale, a residen- tial treatment centre for dis- turbed children at Oak Ridges and the youngster was admitted there after years of heartâ€"breaking trou- ble at elementary and sec- ondary schools. After less than two years at Warren- dale the teenager is back at home, able to hold a job. Regular out-patient care con- tinues and the whole family is benefitting through coun- selling. “This kind of total ap- proach," Mrs. Torrance told the hommittee, “is well wor- thy of public support and more official recognition.” While urging more centres like Warrendale instead of enormous and overcrowded institutions such as the On- tario Hospital School at Smith’s Falls, Mrs. Torrance stressed that preventive mea- sures were urgently needed.

The Merchant goals were split, three to George Saywell, plus an as- sist, three to Terry Watson, one ‘and two assists to Jim Maddin, ‘and one to Jim Sara. Other assists went to Greg Elkins and Robert Bailey with two, each. These seven games were all the motion seen on October 30. "There must be education for family living through the schools, to teach people awareness of their responsiâ€" bilities to their children and themselves," said her brief. “Parenting is an art which can be taught and it must be learned by those who intend to embark on its sometimes stormy seas. We can no longer afford the cost of leaving it to instinct.” she said. “We must teach the gronth and development of human beings all along the line." Quoting the Canadian Mental Health Association's description of the tide of mental illness as "the quiet disaster”, she urged that ac- tion be taken now to control it. Chief among her prescrip. tions is more teacher train- ing to aid in the recognition of emotional disturbance in children while a course on the identification and help of emotionally disturbed children is offered at T0- ronto Teachers' College, Mrs. Torrance feels strongly that it should be compulsory and not just an option as at pres- ent. At the same time, she feels that primary teachers should be the most highly qualified, rather than the least quali- fied as is presently the case, as early identification of disturbance is most im- portant. Parents must be included in the total approach, Mrs. Torrance told “The Liberal”. “There is too much skirting around. Parents often don’t wish to recognize or accept difference in a child.” They must be helped to become aware, she said, because if emotional disturbance is not caught early it can be- come a long term case and bring untold heartache to THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ontario, Thursday, Nov. 4, 1965 Easte'rn farmers ' * Increase in Old Age pensuons However, Mrs Torrance stressed that mental retard- ation and emotional disturb- ance should not be classed together, although they can exist in the same child. How to avoid emotional disturb- ance and how to recognize it should be taught. “When you face a hard reality. half the battle is won," she said. “Such acceptance is manda- tory before the child or the parents can be helped." both parents and child Specific recommendations which Mrs. Torrance made to the committee included: that the province assume total financial responsibility for the care of disturbed children; that doctors, health nurses and teachers be in- cluded along with social workers in the treatment team; that school boards pay the cost of school fees if the child must leave his own community for treatment; that existing facilities be ex- panded. with more resident- ial treatment centres; that primary grades be limited to not more than 25 pupils; that a Department of Youth be set up to co-ordinate all youth services so no child is overlooked, whatever his problems or resources. Mrs. Torrance also assisted in the preparation of a brief which was presented by the Ontario Association for Em- otionally Disturbed Children to Ontario Premier John Ro- barts and his cabinet earlier this year. This brief in- cluded several pathetic case histories underlining the heartbreaking conditions created by lack of assistance for emotionally disturbed children, by lack of recog- nition of their needs, and compounding of their prob- lems when they are mistak- enly admitted to reform in- stitutions and those intended for the mentally retarded. 0n reading a column by Lotta Dempsey in the To‘ ronto Star last summer, en- titled “And Nobody Waved Goodbye", Mrs. Torrance herself became the subject of a further column entitled “She Waves Hello”. The first column was an account by a visitor to the summer camp operated by Warren- dale who had said that most of the children at the camp had never known love and CHANGE OF MEETING DATE Norton, Jim Township School Area of Vaughan By authority of the Board, notice is hereby given that the date of the regular November Board meeting has been changed from Thursday, November 11th, 1965 to Wednesday, November 10th, 1965.

Many of the parents were defeated and heart-weary when they found Warrendale, she said, they were parents who cared enormously but had made mistakes and had nowhere to turn. The whole family has ben- cfitted from Warrendale, re- ports Mrs. Torrance. Fol- lowing counselling, both she and her husband were given IQ tests at the County Hos- pital, Newmarket. When these revealed very high po- tential (aptitude tests showed both would have made good physicians) they enrolled in night classes at Atkinson College of York University. Mrs. Torrance hopes to be able to work in the behav- ioral sciences herself some- day and actively help troub- led young people. In reply to the Scriptural question “Am I my brothers' keeper”, Mrs. Torrance an- swers in her brief, “In view of my own experience. ac- quired insight 'and personal involvement I must say, un- equivocally, ‘Yes’." _To whiéh nothing can be more fittineg added than “Amen”.
