Three times as many boys as

He finds the mothers attentions
lavished on the baby. and In his
despair he takes the things ne wants

He thinks it serves his mother

necessary. But the father was az

from bad to worse and then became
a criminal.

mental age of a child. often the
young criminal aged nine has the
mentality of a baby OF two and
picks up things just as a baby OF
that age would do. They cannot
