expressed himself as strongly la favour of the resolution of the ontario welfare officers association committee on desertions calling for raising of the maximum age of parental responsibility for children from 10 to ib i am convinced that the prop er approach to the problem of delinquency is to make a child submissive to the parents and the parents responsible for the child so long as they ue sup porting him said magistrate langdon the moment the parents are unable to control the child they can get out of the responsibility by making a proper application to have the child declared a ward of the crown i would carry the proposal a step further and say that chil dren should be the responsibil ity of parents until such time as the children ire able to support themselves the magistrate believes that if parents were penalized finan cially for the offences of their children they would be very much more careful about train ing and controlling them the object of the resolution passed
