Or. Martha Eliot, former head of Chiidren'S
Bureau of the US. Department of Health, Edu-
cation and Welfare, is now a professor in Har-
wards School of Public Health. Says DR.. Eliot:
Anyone who thinks the way to curb juvenile
delinquency is to punish every parent of de-
linquent youngSter ought to read this thought
full article. It's an eye-opener.
The parent who contributes, through fault
or neglect. to his child's delinquency may be,
under existing law in most states. held liable
for his child's delinquent acts. To impose
vcarious liability upon every parent whose
child commits delinquent act is not only re-
pugnant to American concepts of justice and
fair play; it is contrary to sound social policy.
There are better ways to help inadequate
fathers and mothers to be more effective par
entS.
Every community should have the kinds of
diagnostic, counseling and guidance services
that reach out to parents with serious personal
or social problems.
Family counselors. child-guidance clinics,
school social workers, Standardization classes,
chld-welfare services, probation workers-wit
the courts and juvenile police officers are all
doing valiant work. The trouble is there are
not enough of them.
Punitive laws may seem the cheap and easy
way out. Actually in many cases they can
do more harm than good.

hewing to the letter Of the local law. judge fined
the father SIS
In numerous communities we found that bringing
the punish-the-parent laws into force has seri-
ously hampered the work of socialservce agencies.
Juvenile case workers throughout the country were
vehemently opposed to the new laws. A Pennsyl-
vania social worker explained to US: For years
we've tried to get parents to bring in their children
for counseling and help the minute they showed
signs of becoming delinquent Now much of our
educatve work is undone. These days mothers and
fathers are UNDERSTANDABLE afraid to admit they are
having trouble. They can't afford to pay fines and
they certainly don't want TO 60 to jail They conceal
their children's crimes. They even abb for them"
In Illinois, a psychatrist who had worked for

in his community. he was thinking of Withdrawing
his help.
"Our juvenile court used TO be staunch friend to
children who were in trouble. We worked to recon-
Gle them with their families, he said But now
feel that have lost the confidence of these children.
How can they trust me when the same court that
I'm working for is the one that Furnishes their par
ents? They think of me now an enemy!"
Finally, and perhaps most important, is the undue
amount of damage the new laws inf1ict upon the
innocent. Most of the law officers we talked to told
US that few families produce more than one really
bad seed" The other children in the family may
be obedient studious, Woodworking - wholly good
juvenile citizens. They are apparently being raised
quite properly by the same set of parents who are
fined sent to Jail because of the delinquency Of
brother or sister.
And the innocent brothers and sisters have COM
mted offense, yet they must suffer the stigma Of
having 'jabird' parents. They are deprived of their
parents economic support. Foster parents and other
aid must be provided. relief rolls begin to swell and
the taxpayers, who have been looking hopefully
toward the movement as a quick, cheap cure for
juvenile crime, find that the problem is costing them
more than ever.
Misleading Statistics
Why then, do so many communities each year
decide punish the parents? Best guess is that they
receive false encouragement from sets of easily avail
able statistics - figures released by other commune
ties who have just begun to try acknowledgement
schemes and whose officials are honestly enthusiastic
about the first results.
In Mchigan's Wayne County OetroiD. for exam
pe the new law is said have cut juvenile vandalism
in public parks by 90 per cent. In Sangamon County,
Ill., officials recently said they are delighted" with
the results of their similar new law. In Richmond,

fewer cases involving juveniles.
At first glance these reports sound like exactly
the kind of results most Of us are longing to see.
But the fact is that ong-term basis. punishthe
parent laws have proved thoroughly unsatisfactory!
No community should discuss this legislation
