Dianne Kirton was the program convener and responsi- ble for getting the tape. Barbara CoI- orosso of Colorado was the lecturer. and her humorous and rapid-fire manner held everyone's attention. Her observations came partly from working with problem children and raising children of her own, and sounded logical. She demonstrated three types of parental discipline: brick wall - the unbending authority that teaches children to do as they are told, but doesn't teach them to think for themselves; the jelly fish approach which contains little discipline of any kind, and often results in whiny, unhappy children, and the backbone method, where dicipline is assertive, not aggressive, parents don't allow the children to con them, and children taught to think about the conse- quences of their actions. If a situation is life-threatening to the child, the parent quickly in- terferes, otherwise you let them learn to control themselves. If you tell them to do something, put a time limit on it, and don't back down, don't argue and don't become angry, as anger on- ly begets anger and clouds the real issue. On sex education, she claims it should end, not begin at puberty, and when a child reaches puberty, there should be a small celebration If your child gets into trouble, don't bail him out and don't abandon him, but back him up and help him work his way out of it. One parent should always spend time with small children at bedtime, reading and singing to them to teach them how to relax and go to sleep. This avoids the problem of children getting out of bed and demanding at- tention, and disrupting the parents' evening. As they get older, let them read themselves to sleep. Joan Beierling, who assisted with the program, read "The Meanest Mother in the World" and the hymn Mothers of Salem was sung. Dianne's devotional message was "Children and How They Grow".
