At wit's end by Erma Bombeek P946 Enu prS., It's time L someone reas- sured parents. There are eight stages of parental intelligence. These stages have nothing to do with an increase or decrease of brain cells. They have no- thing to do with IQ or mental activity. The stages shift without warning or reason. Why? Because our kids tell us so, that's why. Stage I is probably our lowest ebb. We have an in- fant in our home and we don't know anything, but it doesn't matter because the infant knows even less. Therefore, the infant's eyes follow us everywhere. We can stick out a finger and the kid will hang onto it without even questioning why. It's the best of both worlds. Stage' II occurs when the infant is about two years old. We are approaching our Oral Roberts plateau. We heal just by touching lips to a finger. We mend books with magic and replace a doll's head with the skill of a sur- geon. We are on a roll. Stage III has parents still holding ground as we unself- ishly send him or her to school where they learn other adults know something too ... some of them even more than Mommy or Daddy, but intellectually, we are still on firm ground. At around age 12 (Stage IV), erosion takes place. This usually happens in some minor things like help- ing them with their home- work and having them fail the course, or showing them how to ice skate and your ending up in a full body cast. You find them looking at you sometimes like they wonder how you keep your job. By the time Stage V oc- curs, your children are around 15 years old and you begin to regress at an out- standing rate. You don't re- member what you promised. You don't remember being a child. You're repetitious, boring and are incapable of doing anything except listen in on private phone conver- sations and say, "I only punish you because I love you " The biggest change comes two years later at Stage VL Parents are vegetables! Children begin to refer to them in the third person, anticipating their inability to comprehend anything. (Example: "How in the world did those two ever have children? Maybe they watched a video disc.") At Stage VII, children are the adults and parents are the children. They drive you in your Car to your dental ap- pointment. They plan the menus (pizza), they control the phone and the utilities, as well as the vacations and social life. ( "You and Dad will be a lot more comfort- able in your room away from the noise.") Stage VIII comes the day after they're married, at which time you become a genius overnight. You know about money, loans and oven temperatures. It's your fin- est hour. What a pity most parents can't hang on that long. PORT-AU-CHOiX The Port-au-Choix historic park in Newfoundland, with its three Indian burial grounds dating back' some 3,000 years, gives us a glimpse into Canada's pre- history. Archaeologists believe that the most recent of these burial grounds dates back some 3,230 years and that the oldest easily exceeds 4,000 years. The bones and arti- facts unearthed in the region belong to the culture of the Dorset Eskimos. This type of culture, known as the Mari- time Archaic tradition, is found all along the eastern coast of Canada from Maine to Labrador. The excava- tions have revealed that the natives of the area did no farming, and that they lived on 'hunting, fishing and what they could gather from the land. A number of hunting instruments, such as har- poons. spears, traps and snares, have been found. Some clothing and decora- tions have also been dug up. All of these objects, and many others, have made it possible to piece together the life-style of the Dorsets. A permanent display devoted to this culture has been set up in the new Port-au-Choix visitor centre. Researchers are continuing their work and each new discovery will further enrich the display, which is expected to grow.
