Some influences she felt were most im- portant in children's lives are home en- vironment, friends, the school and the community. She believes the STEP pro- gram (Systematic Training for Effective Parenting) as well as . Family and Children's Services have been very helpful to them. She felt that, although it is impor- tant to encourage each individual child's talents through various activities, it is also necessary to have some family time, when everyone would be home together. Ruth Ritchie thanked Lorraine and discussion continued through lunch.
