Looks after objects (5)
I believe the answer is:
minds
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'looks after' is the first definition.
'objects' is the second definition.
(to mind something is to object to it happening)
(Other definitions for minds that I've seen before include "Tends; objects to" , "Takes care of" , "Objects to; brains" , "Looks after for a while" , "Objects to; intellects" .)
