The
Correct .Support
Distraught parents are stan-
ding helplessly by while they
watch many of their teenagers in
a seeming frantic plunge to
destruction.
They watch horrified and
wonder, Why? What have we
done wrong?
Many of them are running
scared, and frantically searching
for some kind of reassurance.
They may not get reassurance
from David Wilkerson's book,
Parents on Trial' but the author
does offer advice and suggestions
as to how parents can more ef-
fectively raise children who will
benefit society rather than
become a drag to it.
For the most part, Mr.
Wilkerson pulls no punches and
puts the blame squarely on the
shoulders of the parents whose
children turn out badly.
He interviewed hundreds of
young people in preparation to
writing the book and he states,
"Ninety percent of the teenagers
said they looked to their parents
for instruction in what was right
and wrong, but that their parents
did not always fill this need. Only
about half went with their per-
sonal problems. Quite a few in-
dicated they felt their parents
withheld advice because they
thought the youngsters did not
want it."
A twenty year old girl said the
damage done by her over-
indulgent mother, who had
placed no restrictions on her,
could never be repaired.
Many other kids pinpointed the
blame for their trouble on their
mother, father or both.
One boy said, "I think a lot of
times parents are living two lives
...They want to be good parents
and they want to bring up their
children right, try to love their
children and everything, but at
the same time they're thinking a
lot ,about their own lives. I can
remember when I was very
young some of the things my
mother did which I thought were
wrong. Even though I was very
young, and maybe she didn't
realize it, they still stuck in my
mind."
Wilkerson sums it up by saying,
"If there is a thread that has run
through my own experience with
parents and children it is the
thread of love in homes that have
produced our "goodniks," and
the thread of neglect or disin-
terest in those that have turned
out 'badniks.'
He states if parents loved their
children enough and showed their
love, the stories of many
delinquent kids would be quite
different.
Different View Point

view is offered by Dr. Urie
Bronfenbrenner, a child
development specialist and a
professor of psychology at
Cornell.
He asserts "What your child
becomes is no longer within your
power as a parent to control."
Because, he says, youth's
behavior today...be it good, anti-
social or neutral_is most in-
fluenced by peers and not by
parents.
Dr. Bronfenbrenner says no
parent is immune from this
'peers overshadowing parents' or
any of the other problems of
trying to raise children in today's
society.
His main concern, as a
psychologist and a parent (both
he and Mr. Wilkerson have
severalchildren),is what he calls
the breakdown of our system in
making human beings human,
What's happening, he says is
that parents are spending less
and less time with their children
doing things, and as a result
children are left with their peers.
Drugs and delinquency are the
products of this kind of
socialization, he says.
But the doctor doesn't blame
parents,
He says the disadvantaged are
so busy coping with the rot in
their world they don't have time
to be good parents and the ad-
vantaged are so trapped in the
rat race they haven't the time
either.
He is sorry to see housing
projects segregate people by age
so that they cut down children's
exposure to a variety of age role
models.
He says parents can't do much
acting alone except plan as many
adult-child experiences as
possible by taking them camping
and on other kinds of outings.
In other words, just take more
time to be parents.
Priorities must also change, he
says. "Our society has come to
put job first, church and civic
duties second and parenthood
last,"
An optimistic note comes from
Rev. Murdo Nicolson, a nominee
for moderator of the
Presbyterian Church in Canada.
He suggests that young people
themselves are beginning to see
the light and that a backlash of
our permissive society is
brewing...
"There are astonishing
developments within the high
schools...many of the kids, who
are nobody's fools, have begun to
realize the importance of moral
principles within any society and
therefore activities in schools are
increasing which recognize the
return and value of religious and
moral responsibilities."
local branch at Exeter Public
School, recently.
She outlined the roll of the
volunteer and said, "Nothing can
function properly without the'
volunteer." She stated that the
board should be composed of one
third each of parents,
businessmen and service per-
sonnel.
Mrs. Masseo said the volunteer
must have knowledge of the
retardates needs. Help is needed
in workshops with crafts, and in
organizing friendly outings. She
stressed that the retarded
primarily need companionship.
Mrs. Masseo also pointed out
that volunteers can help mothers
of retarded children by offering
to baby sit to give the parent
more freedom. She said often the
new mother of a retarded baby
just needs someone with an
understanding ear she can talk
to.

traduced the speaker and Miss

WHAT IS SO RARE AS
A DAY IN JUNE?
June is the time of year when
it's good to be alive to enjoy all
the wonders of nature that un-
folds before our eyes.
But there are many among us
who can enjoy June only through
a window. These are our shut-in
friends who must lie or sit wat-
ching the seasons change through
a pane of glass.
June 6 is SHUT-INS DAY. Add
enjoyment to someone's life by a
visit, a gift, or flowers from your
garden. Failing this, a letter or
card would let them know you're
thinking of them.
You'll be glad you did.
