He told theP.O . that he has two brothers in the service, but he does not miss them . The boystates that he liked school in Texas but as he got older he fould that he had otherthings he wanted to do . The boy would not enumerate other things he had to doexcept that he had a lot of things.

Questioned as to his aim in life in what he wantedto do, the boy replied, "I want to let me xxxx go home and be by myself .

PO inquiredof Lee as to whether he would return home, whether he would attend school .

Theboyreplied," I have a choice between going to school here between going to school or inan institution .

`Does it matter?

O.K. I go to school here .

Lee stated that while heliked Youth House he miss the freedom of doing what he wanted .

He indicated thathe did not miss his mother .The PO discussed living in N.Y . with Lee.

Lee indicated that he found N.Y . all rightto live in .

He indicated that it was immaterial to him as to where he live .P.O . noticed that this boy seems to have no drive, no ambition, he seems to be contentwith merely just living . In our discussion with the boy, nothing seem to registerwith him .PARENTAL VERSION AND ATTITUDE : Mrs . Oswald was interviewed by the POon this date. Mrs. Oswald impressed the PO xxx as an intelligent, well-meaningmiddle-aged woman, good education and background .It is Mrs. Oswald' belief that the boy's difficulty stems from the fact that he had notbeen able to meet the changes in his environment. She describes him as alwaysbeing a "loner" . He would generally play alone and if boys joined him he wouldplay with them . At school he was captain of the baseball team . In Texas, shestates, the family had a home with a yard, a dog, and the boy would get along fine .Here in N.Y. family occupy an apartment and there is nothing for the boy to do .Mrs. Oswald described the boy as introvert, the boy who has difficulty in makingfriendships as he made no effort to initiate any.

Generally Lee waited for the chil-dren to make overtures to him . Regarding the boy's school attendance, the motherstated that he was always an average student in school.

He likes school and seemto attend regularly .

The mother feels that the boy moving to a different communityand being placed in the midst of different nationalities and crowded apartment con-

adverseditions, has had an /effect on the boy, that he has retreated into a shell . Mrs .Oswald indicated she recognizes the boy's problem but there's little she can do . Shementioned to the PO that the family formerly had their own car, their own homeand that the boy had two brothers at home to play with .

Mother indicated that shehas a home in Texas, which she plans to sell .

At present she is in no financial con-dition to return to Texas. The boy basno other family there to whom he can go.Mrs . Oswald believes the present attitude of indifference andlack of concern is oneof defiant. She attributes his behavior to that of xxx adolescent behavior orgrowing up pains. The mother point out that when the boy first came here, she livedon Grand Concourse and the boy had difficulty in getting along with other childrenbecause of his manner and custom, that his mode of dress was different and he had adifferent accent.

The boy at the time dressed a great deal in "jeans" levies where asthe other boys in the neighborhood seems to be more or less better dressed. Thisseem to have had some sort of affect upon the boy.Mrs. Oswald indicated that while she realized that the boy had little family life athome, that she is unable to give him adequate supervision, she would not want theboy place. She would prefer to have the child remain home . However, should thesituation arise where she believe that placement seems absolutely necessary,, she in-dicated that she would cooperate with any plan that the court may have .SOCIAL AGENCY RECORD : Oswald Marguerite(Claverie)&James-John YouthHouse 4/21/53 Margarite&Lee(int . son Lee) Community Service Society, FamilyDiv . #219(X51/16/53

OSWALD LEE

#23979EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION : Lee Oswald, 13 year old boy of theLutheran faith, is before the court for the first time . The boy had admitted theallegations of the petition . According to the boy, he is not attending school as hefeels that he has many more important things to do . Aside from this, he hasindicated that he does not like his teachers, his classmates nor the school . The boyhas expressed a desire to be left alone.The boy, the P.O .'s observed, is a friendly, likeable boy, who protrays very littleemotions . Reaction to the present situation was/one of indifference. The mother,while she seems a well meaning intelligent woman is unable to give Lee adequatesupervision, due to her long working hours. Much of Lee's difficulty seems to stemfrom his inability to adapt himself to the change of environment and the changeof the economical status of the family . The record reveals the family was of means,having had their own home in Corning Texas, seemingly a full family life thus Leehad had has two brothers living with them Coming to N.Y.C ., and moving into acrowded area, without his brothers, amongst varied groups , who dressed and spokedifferent from the boy Lee has been unable to find acceptance and has retreatedinto a shell wherein he prefers to confines of his apartment to that of dealing withother children.

The P.O . feels that this is a dangerous situation for the boy to isolate himself fromother social contacts with children his age. The matter has been discussed withhis mother . The possibility of returning to Texas or Louisiana was discussed withthe mother, but she is unable to do so do to her present financial condition . WhileMrs. Oswald is opposed to placement, she feels that she would go along with it,

absolutelyif it seems/necessary.The P.O . feels that we are dealing with a boy who feels a great deal of insecurityand the need for acceptance. As it does not seem that this can be done with the boyremaining at home but it was felt that perhaps placement in an institution wherethese needs can be met would be beneficial at this time . However, recommendationis being held in abeyance pending the receipt of the psychiatric examination .ALL OF WHICH IS RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED

JOHN CARROPROBATION OFFICER

JC :cms5/1/53-5/1/53SUMMARY FOR P.O .'S REPORT PSYCHIATRIC DONE ON 5/1/53. "This 13 yearold well built boy has superior mental resources and functions only slightly belowhis capacity level in spite of chronic truancy from school which brought him intoYouth House. No finding of neurological impairment or psychotic mental changescould be made . Lee had to be diagnosed as " personality pattern disturbance withschizoid features and passive aggressive tendencies ." Lee has to be seen as anemotionally , quite disturbed youngster who suffers the impact of really exist-ing emotional isolation and deprivation, lack of affection absence of familylife and rejection by a self involved and conflicted mother . Although Lee deniesthat he is in need of any other form of help other " remedial" one, we gainedthe definite impression that Lee can be reached through contact with an under-standing and very patient psychotherapist and if he could be drawn at the sametime into group psychotherapy . We arrive therefore at the recommendation thathe should be placed on probation under the condition that he seek help and guidancethrough contact with a child guidance clinic, where he should be treated preferablyby a male psychiatrist who could substitute, to a certain degree at least, for thelack of a father figure . At the same time, his mother should be urged to seekpsychotherapeutic guidance through contact with a family agency . If this plandoes not work out

#23979SUMMARY (CONT.)

favorably and Lee cannot cooperate in this treatment plan on an out-patient basis,removal from the home and placement could be resorted to at a later date but it isour definite impression that treatment on probation should be tried out before thestricter and therefore possibly more harmful placement approach is applied to thecase of this boy. The Big Brother Movement could be undoubtedly of tremendousvalue in this case and Lee should be urged to join the organized group activities ofhis community, such as provided by the PAT, or Y\lCA of his neighborhood ."

s/s Renatus Hartogs, M.D . Ph . d.Denior Psychiatrist.

5/7/53.COURT ACTION :
