Wood GLASSES PRESCRIPTION OPTICIANS RICHMOND HILL â€" Ata recent meeting of the AMO (a morning out) group at Richmond Hill United church Joyce. volunteer sponsor for Parent Concern. talked about the difficulties of being a parent. She told the group, all mothers of young children. the toughest and most challenging job they will ever have is that of being a parent. Parent Concern. she explained, is a self-help, help-each-other group designed to help parents cope with parent-child stress. “What cannot be deeply known ahead of time is the never-ending responsibility, the con- stant demands and the nerve shattering crises that characterize the role, at least as much as the joys," said Joyce. “We tend to overlook the fact we are not all equally suited for parenthood any more than we are for teaching school or playing various sports," she continued. “Matters of tem- perament. age, health and competing interests, to mention a few, play a part in determining suitability. And as parents we are blamed, not trained." Parenthood, said Joyce, is one of the last stands of the amateur. Most parents see the whole problem of discipline in child rearing as a question of being either strict or lenient, authoritarian or per- missive, their relation- ship as a power struggle, she continued. Some parents oscillate between the two because they know of no alter- native to these ineffective win-lose methods. “Family life lays the foundation for how we feel as a person, and how we cope with life," said Joyce. A co-operative family atmosphere is the ideal toward \which families should be working, she said. Such an atmosphere is characteristic of a family in which children and adults treat one another with respect, in which each person has self respect and a feeling of self-worth. The authoritarian or permissive method of parenting generate neither of these feelings, said Joyce. She recommended courses based on the books, “Children the Challenge” by Rudolph Dreikurs and “Parent Effectiveness Training" by Thomas Gordon, both offering an alternative which can help everyone in the family in reaching AURORA - The much needed Howard Johnson Motor Hotel proposed for Aurora has been stalled because of tight mortgage money; Construction of the hotel, to be built on land south of Sterling Drug, was supposed to begin in May, 1974. News next door the kind of acceptance and feeling of belonging that breeds self- confidence and co- operation. “Really listen to how you are parenting," Joyce advised. “Are you satisfied with what you hear. or do you say to yourself ‘There must be a more positive and con- structive way?‘ If the latter is true. look into the courses mentioned.“ Each person has dif- ferent needs, she said, and for some a tran- sactional analysis course or personal. marriage or family counselling would be the right way to go about growing as a person and-or a family. For those who are seriously concerned about their parent-child relationships. there is Parent Concern. Joyce told the group. “If you are ridiculing or putting down your child or have lost or are afraid of losing control of your anger, call me at 884-3503 to say, ‘l'm under a great deal of stress and I’m taking it out on my child'." Parent Concern meets weekly, and to preserve the anonymity of members, only first names are used. There are no fees or dues. “Reaching out for help, having the desire to change and work at that desire is now ‘the in thing‘ to do," Joyce concluded. “We’re so fortunate in our times. Help is available. All we have to do is reach out for it.“ Also present were two District Deputy Grand Matrons. Sister Betty Garland and Sister Jean Jolly. Past District Deputies Daisy Holden and Constance Snaith are RICHMOND HILL â€" Richmond Hill Chapter 302, Order of the Eastern Star had three busy meetings recently. March 2, March 16 and April 6.
