Ian McAllister and Lauretta Seigner listen as Shelley Erb, Grade six, Zurich Public School, explains her entry in the South Huron district science fair at the rec centre. Are you listening? Many people feel uncomfor- table looking another person straight in the eye. During a conversation, direct eye con- tact may be made briefly, then shifted by one or both parties. Someone told me watching ,a person's eyes while that ship and listening this way: "Friendship is the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having ' neither to weight thoughts nor measure words, but p6uring all right out just as they are, chaff and grain together, certain that a Odds 'n ends By Elaine Townshend person is talking is a sign of forcefulness on the part of the listener. Strangely, I always thought it meant interest. If someone stares out the window while I'm talking to them, I get the distinct impression they're bored. Is anything more frustrating than trying to have a three -sided conversa- tion between yourself. a se- cond person and the television set? How many times have we been tempted to grab a newspaper from in front of so- meone's face and scream. "Please' listen to me"? How often have we tried to talk to someone, received no response,walked into another room, said something about the person and had him or her yell, "I heard that?" Even if we gain a person's undivided attention, does he or she really listen to us? And, when the tables are turned. do we listen to them? Listening is an art - a vital part of communication. Some people listen, but theydon't hear what the other person is saying. Few people have the ability to listen and understand.

Carolyn Herrmann wrote about A Listener: "It`s nice to have someone to talk to When you have a secret to share Or when you feel troubled or worried To know that somebody will care. It's wonderful having a listener Because you can learn a whole lot By hearing yourself as you ramble On some special problem you've got.

Want doctor,, hspitals to detail Huron County Women are asking doctors and hospitals where they stand on policies and procedures surrounding the birth of babies. This week, a birthing, committee associated with Women To- day has sent questionnaires to all Huron County doctors and all hospitals in and surroun- ding the county. "We are exploring the op- portunit. es and options for birthing available to expec- tant parents" said Valerie Bolton, coordinator ofithe self- help and advocacy group for Huron County women. "Our goal is to increase the oppor- tunity for women to have the most positive and safe birth possible. We feel this is best facilitated by a well informed expectant mother who Is en- couraged to take part in the decisions about the birth." It wasn't long ago that women were routinely sedated through childbirth, given gas before delivery and fathers were exiled to smoky wailing rooms. Breastfeeding was discouraged and the newborn was whisked away, from both mother and father for hours after the birth. A lot has been changing in our hospitals that tend toward more family centred materni- ty care. Fathers are routine- ly present at births and even in a few cases have been pre- sent at caesarean deliveries. Mothers are handed their child on the delivery table and many breastfeed their infant VACUUM PACKED MAXWELL HOUSE COFFEE 369 G PKG. 2.53 within minutes of the birth." "We applaud the changes that are being made" said Bolton, "but some of us are frustrated with the slow pace of the change and also with the lack of opportunity women have to communicate what it is they want." Most doctors expect that women will talk to them in the privacy of their office about concerns and disappoint- ments about the birth of their child. But all too often women are intimidated by their doc- tors, either by shyness, lack of the proper technical terms or time constraints. She may imagine her doctor is too busy or will be offended by what she has to say. Quite often there is fear or anger about the birth experience a woman may never properly deal with. "A woman doesn't want to create waves with a doctor or hospital she will be returning to in a couple of years' time" explained Bolton, "'That is why we have chosen to form a committee and talk to doc- tors and hospitals as a group We want to diffuse the emo- tionality that flairs up when you talk about the issue on a personal basis. "We certain ly don't want to get peoples' back's up, we just want the opportunity to discuss the issues and relay our concerns in a non -threatening way." This is certainly not just a local issue. The College of Physicians and Surgeons in birthing policies Ontario have issued guidelines to Ontario doctors discouraging them from par- ticipating in homebirths: Safety is the main factor arguing against birthing at home but several local womeh have decided for a variety of reasons to deliver their babies at home, usually with a midwife present. "Doc- tors insist the homebirths are trot safe" stated a practicing midwife "But there are risks associated with a hospital birth that are not present at a home birth". "Our committee is certain- ly not advocating women abandon the hospitals for homebirths" emphasized Bolton "We are concerned that women have the oppor- tunity to have the security of a safe environment for the birth without having un- wanted technical procedures or drugs forced on her." "A central issue in birthing is who should be in control" stated Kathi Wilson, a childbirth educator frotn the Kirkton area. "We feel the women should direct the birth with the support of her part• ner and the professionals at hand". Too often she is ex- pected to hand over her responsibility and participa- tion when she walks through the hospital's front doors." "We must keep in mind that birthing is not an illness, it is natural process, that in most cases needs no interference whatsoever." ¶mARKETS REGULAR 10 OZ. OR DECAFFEINATED 8 OZ.
