( Photo by Don Hubick) Society must end violence against women former Trudeau advisor warns Equality starts in the soul and has to be passed on to children the advisor on women's issues to former prime minister Pierre Trudeau told Huron County's elementary school teachers. Maude Barlow of Ottawa, the founding president of the Canadian Coalition Against Media Pornographywas the guest speaker ,at the joint meeting on May 22 of the Huron Federated Women Teachers' Association of Ontario and the Huron branch of the Ontario Public School Teachers' Association. She left the teachers shaken and quiet, hardly able to believe what they had heard. Outliningsome of the things that affect children today, Ms. Barlow read some,let- ters from children ranging from 13 to 17 years. These letters were entered in a con- test to see the heavy, metal group Motley Crue. 'One young girl, in not so delicate terms, s aid she would go to bed with the ugliest and fattest man in the world in order to see the band. Other letters were as explicit, if not more so. "I don't think our age group is aware of this," said Barlow. 1 .It was her suggestion that parents over 30 t think the bands of today are like the Beatles . and Elvis Presley. They aren't that inno- ' cent, she said, some of the groups promote 1 sexual sadism. Videos have far-reaching effects today • said theOttawa woman. "They're teaching children to use -violence as an alternative," she said. Children, she said, have become desen- sitized to violence. Barlow related an inci- dent about her own two teenage sons. They watchedthe television special Adam, based on a true story about a young boy who went ;missing in the United States and ends up 'murdered, "They have seen so much violence that to them, it's just another story," said Barlow explaining she was emotionally upset over the film. Besides the issue of pornography and violence _ in society, Barlow discussed women's equality and the interrelation between the three.subjects. "We have to find a way to end the violence against women," she said. Part of the method of stopping the violence is making society aware of the pro- 'blem. She praised the efforts of the :Federated Women Teachers' Association :Epil.epsy 1 formation An information day, to be held at London's Parkwood Hospital on Jiune 1, will study thee 'causes of epilepsy and fhe problems associated with the disorder.

She also pointed out that male and female children are given a different set of values. "Boys learn to be competitive and in- dependent...Girls are still taught to be dependent and expressive of their feelings," said Barlow. She added. that expressing feelings is good, but men have to learn to do the same. Barlow is now acting as a consultant on women's issues to schools, universities and businesses.
