Description
Excerpt from The Individual Delinquent: A Text-Book of Diagnosis and Prognosis for All Concerned in Understanding Offenders
The handling of a delinquent in any way is an important affair for society. Our findings show how vital it is that the handling should be entrusted to intelligent people, capable of understanding a human individual, and charged with a feeling of grave public duty. We see every need of insisting on this matter of understanding all along the line. It begins with parents, for they should comprehend at least the main phenomena of child life, and should guard the mental and moral sources of weal and woe. Ultimately, as many a judge has insisted, the problem of crime must hark back to parental guardianship. Unfortunately, however, cases are seen too late to educate pa rents, while of course many parents, by reason of innate defect or other circumstances, have never been educable in this matter.
