Let us inspect for a moment the "Canadian Children‘s Charter" which has recently been prepared by the Montreal Council of Social Agencies. It is the hope of the Council that this Charter will receive the endorsation of the Canadian Child Welfare field as a dynamic instrument of policy and pubâ€" licity. Its value lies in its positive and simplified statement of every child‘s right and every citizen‘s duty. It states in the plainest posisble terms the conâ€" cept of the Children‘s Aid Society as to the rights of all children and cerâ€" tainly of those wha come under its care.

The Society has the responsiblity "of be‘ng as a parent to the children committed to its chargeâ€"or providing through its staff and foster homes the love and affection which the children have missed in their own homes and of strivâ€" ing by every means to create and susâ€" tain in the children that sense of seâ€" | curity which is so essential to their normal development and which has either been seriously shaken or is missâ€" ing altogether in their lives." Volumes could be written about thouâ€" sands of our foster homes in this proâ€" vince. There can surely be no higher function that good citizens can perform in society than to take under their roof a child deprived of everything he should normally have and give to him the love, the care, the opportunities and the standards which will not only make him happy, but will give to the comâ€" munity a healthy, goodâ€"principled, us>â€" ful citizen later on. Thousands of fosâ€" ter parents are doing this for our children of Ontario toâ€"day. And we need still more foster homes! So that we find in the earliest days of the child protection movement a modern concept being advancedâ€"that the ideal is to provide the neglected, abandoned or abused little boy or girl with the nearest approach to a natural home and loving parents:. One of the greatest responsiblities of any Society is to find good foster homes for their wards and thereafter to constantly visit these homes in the interests of both the child and the foster parent. In many Societies we find a Poster Parent‘s Asâ€" sociation part of the whole organizaâ€" tion. This is a democratic body, offiâ€" cered by the Poster Parents themselves and in constant touch with the Society, which often makes available lectures, discussion groups, etc., which are welâ€" comed by the parents and are successâ€" ful in promoting the highest and most intelligent standards in child care. The utmost care in seleccing the fosâ€" ter home, a sense of comradeship esâ€" tablished between the big family of fosâ€" ter parents and the society, mutual confidence and esteem between the society‘s; staff and the parents and their foster children is the ideal Of, the good Society. This ideal goes far beyond the demands of legislation. It requires the highest social and spiritual principles on the part of experienced and qualified social workers. It requires the active support, encouragement and intelligent understanding from yOouâ€" the men and women of the community â€"who through membership on the Board and Committees can help to set the standards for your Society! The next articles will deal with adoptions. ARTICLE SIX In every community all over this proâ€" vince there are couples anxiously, and often impatiently, awaiting the opâ€" portunity to legally adopt a baby. The word impatiently is used advisedly beâ€" cause often prospective adoptive parâ€" ents cannot understand why they should have to wait so long. They know that thousands of children come under the care of Children‘s Aid Societies every year; they hear of abandoned babies, of children, for one reason or another, removed from the care of their natural parents. They cannot see why there is not always a child awaiting loving, adoptive parents. 4. OPPORTUNITIES FOR SPIRTâ€" TUAL GROWTH and the development of sound values in preparation for reâ€" sponsible citizenship. As has been emphasized before, the first principle observed by your Childâ€" ren‘s Aid Society is that the child‘s natural and normal environment is his own family. Every resource of the comâ€" munity must be used to preserve his home when this can be done without detriment to the child. Thousands of children are in temporary care of Soâ€" cieties because time and effort is being expended in rehabilitating their, own homes. 7. EMFLOYMENT, when he is ready at work for which he is fitted and in which he can grow. Reference was made in Article four to the vision shown by pioneers of the child protection movement in Ontario. In clear and unmistakeable language they stated that â€"the ideal of care for children coming under the responsibiâ€" lity of the Children‘s Aid Society was to establish them in foster homes, temâ€" porary institutional shelter only being provided until such arrangement could be made. At the founding of the Hamilton Children‘s Aid Society in 1894 the Hon. John Gibson, who framed the Children‘s Protection Act, made specâ€" ial reference to this provision in the legislation. Many children in the care of the Children‘s Aid Society have special handicaps of a physical nature or reâ€" lated to personality or behavior. No reputable society will recommend adopâ€" tion under such circumstances unles; the adoptive parents, knowing the child‘s handicap, still insist on adopâ€" tion and can give assurance® of their ability to furnish special care for as long as may be needed. ficient medical, dental and menta‘ nealth services; 5.

They gave this child their name and every natural family relationship was observed. But sometimes these adoptive parents= died without making a will and the child was deprived of his inheritance. tate. In former tion law was not understood as it inheritance. Today in all cases of adoption in Ontario the legal procedure goes through the Children‘s Aid Branch of the Provincial Department of Welfare and the local Society is brought into the picture to act in the interests both of the child and the prospective adopâ€" tive parents. There are so many snags in the matâ€" ter of adontion that every couple wishâ€" ing to adopt a child realize that the law is here to safeguard all parties. There have been cases of couples who without the knowledge of their Childâ€" ren‘s Aid Society have taken a baby into their homes as foster parents. They have come to love this little one as their own and later taken steps to leâ€" application for adoption the Society must take into consideration not only the community standing of the appliâ€" cants but their personalities, educaâ€" tion, interests, religion, the kind of neighbourhood they live in and their ages. It must never be forgotten that the child is the first consideration of the Children‘s Aid Society. | For example An application may be reâ€" fused on account of the applicant‘s ages. One case is on record of a child adopted by a middleâ€"aed couple. This bovy became a brilliant student, but in his first year at high school the adopâ€" tive father then an elderly man beâ€" |came ill and lost his employment.
