PARENTAL CONTROL
WHERE WOMEN DIFFER. (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright). (Received this day at 1.30 p.m.) LONDON, October 3. There is considerable interest in the declaration of Hon. Mrs Bertrand Russell, in the course of a debate with Mrs Cecil Chesterton, that children should be removed from parental control because it lias a bad influence, depriving children of originality. She maintained that they should learn early independence under the supeivision of qualified people. She had sent her own two children to a nuiseiy school from which when they returned she said they wanted to live there always. Airs Chesterton viewed institutionalism with horror and pictured standardised children as hardly distinguishable from each other. She urged that the majority of women still wanted husbands and .children. Dame Hudson Lyall (Chairman ol .Mothers’ Union) interviewed said: “The day that England abolishes the home will be the death knell of her future. It is a preposterous suggestion.” ~Tii, Viscountess Erleigh, of the Baby Week Organisation, said that the mother invariably understands her children better than anyone.
