This cartoon, a product of the National Film Board of Canada, tells the story of a family living contentedly on their own until the outside world mistakenly believes they need "help". Watching this cartoon, I remembered something Henry David Thoreau once said, "If I knew that a man were coming to my home with the fixed intention of doing me good, I would flee for my very life." Good deeds are often a mixed blessing for all parties. First, above all, do no harm. Highly recommended.
