My 8-year-old girl runs away at night saying 'Nobody loves me, I'm off.' What should I do? I get overwhelmed with summer visitors. How can I dissuade them?
These are two of the problems tackled in today's programme by Jean Metcalfe with the help of Olga Franklin, journalist; Dr Wendy Greengross, marriage guidance counsellor; Dr James Hemming, educational psychologist; and Dr William Thomson, editor of The Practitioner.
This week's special guest is Zena Skinner, who gets some reassurance about her problem - an inability to relax.
Joyce Grenfell discusses with DEREK JONES her interest in wildlife and its conservation, and chooses some recordings from the BBC's Sound Archives Producers JOHN BURTON and PAMELA HOWE
