What's in a Name?

What's in a child's name?



A psychiatrist was conducting a group therapy session with four
young mothers and their small children. "You all have obsessions," he observed.



To the first mother, (from Toronto) Mary, he said, "You are
obsessed with eating. You've even named your daughter Candy."



He turned to the second Mom, (from Montreal) Ann: "Your
obsession is with money. Again, it manifests itself in your
child's name, Penny."



He turned to the third Mom, Joyce (from BC): "Your obsession is
alcohol. This too shows itself in your child's name, Brandi."



At this point, the fourth mother, (from Newfoundland) Carol,
quietly got up, took her little boy by the hand, and whispered,
"Come on, Dick, this guy has no idea what he's talking about.
Let's pick up Peter and Willy from school and go get dinner."
