James Snow Minister of Transportation and Communications Energy Ontario iscipline is youth centre "You can't bring up kids with clean hands," com- mented Don Keillor, director of the Huron Centre for Children and Youth, as he spoke to Wingham-area parents on the topic of discipline last week at the Wingham Public School. Addressing his remarks primarily to the parents of younger children, Mr. Keillor said children express their upset or stress through tantrums or "acting up". This upset is easier to see in little children, who cannot cover up their feelings as easily as grownups. Children's bad behavior increases in times of family stress, such as separation or divorce, during hard economic times or when life patterns or routine is upset, he said. However, under- standing the reasons for a problem does not make unwanted bahavior stop. Sometimes physical re- straint is the only solution. When a child must be prevented from hitting a younger sibling by holding him or her in a tight hug, it is important for both children to see a powerful adult say "No" in word and deed, so both get the message the adult will not allow one child to hurt another.

The importance of this exercise is the child's following the order to sit in the chair, no matter what he says while he is there, whether he talks back or even says he has to go to the bathroom. Parents need to be strong, Mr. Keillor emphasized; you must show you mean business. Normally, children do not want to hurt other children, they just want to "throw their weight around", so adults must win by preventing injury and the children really want to lose. If parents do not win, they don't have the will to win, he stated. Children's bad behavior is often the result of their errors in judgment. Though a child knows he "blew it", his pride makes him hold out. Parents gain the most stature in a child's eyes if, when he knows he has erred, they allow him a second chance. While bad behavior gets a lot of attention, parents often forget to reward good behavior with praise, he noted.

Discipline is doing what comes naturally, he said. If you are not centent with the results, step back to think about it and to gain some perspective. Disciplining in anger only fills a child with fear and anger in response — extreme emotions which interfere with learning. Discipline is an act of love in the form of instruction, Mr. Keillor said. Parents' love and discipline shape a child's response to authority at school, on the job and throughout adult life. Discipline without love — or love without discipline — creates a lifetime of dif- ficulties. The Huron Centre for Children and Youth, located at Clinton, counsels children "from birth to their 19th birthday", as well as their families. The director praised the skills of his experienced counsellors and said he values calls from parents wondering if they have a problem. He said developmental difficulties are normal, and the centre tries to find ways to minimize problems. The centre is open week- days from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and two evenings by appoint- ment. The telephone number is 482-3931. Lakelet Mr. and Mrs. George Hepworth of Harriston visited Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Greenley and Mr. and Mrs. Larry Wep- worth and family.
