Synopsis: How dependency grows and how necessary self-reliance is to all successful endeavor and happiness is shown in this motion picture. It an- alyzes the steps in developing self-reliance as: (1) assume responsibility; (2) be informed; (3) know where you are going; and (4) make your own decisions. A careful distinction is drawn between dependence which is undesirable and seeking advice and help, which is part of being intelligently self- reliant.
