Parents are constantly ex posed to advice, some un solicited, on how to raise their children. Pediatricians give it and so do relatives, friends, neighbors, magazine writers and newspaper columnists. To replace this barrage of often conflicting information, STEP (Systematic Training for Effective Parenting) offers parents a practical alternative to meet the challenges of rais ing children today. STEP is intended for group use because the program’s authors have found study groups an especially effective method for parent education. In a group, parents provide encouragement for each other. They share concerns and soon learn that their problems are not unique. Through discus sions, they become aware that their own reactions and at titudes may have influenced their children’s unacceptable behaviors. More specifically, STEP helps parents learn effective ways to relate to their children. By clarifying the pur poses of children’s behavior, STEP also helps parents learn how not to reinforce their children’s unacceptable behav iors and how to encourage cooperative behavior. Through STEP, parents discover something else of great value: that they are not necessarily the cause of dif ficulties with their children. When this burden of guilt is removed, parents £ire freed to function more effectively. The Charlotte Drug Education Center will facilitate a STEP group Thursday evenings, March 7 through April 25. Call Irene Komor at the JCC, 366-0357, or Helen Harrill at the CDEC, 336-3211, for more information. Jewish Camping By Irene Komor In early January, the Jewish Community Center generous ly sponsored my trip to the National Conference on Jew ish Camping at Grossinger’s resort in upstate New York. It was well worth the ex pense. From Sunday night’s opening session by Dr. Sol Gordon, Director of the In stitute for Family Research and Education at Syracuse University, to Thursday’s camp directors’ discussion of Day Camp budgets, I found the conference challenging and educational. Now I know how much I have to learn! Workshops I attended in cluded: Games and Programs for All Occasions; A Practical Guide for Teen Travel; Camp ing Staff Training and Motiva tion; as well as a cultural arts showcase of storytelling, danc ing and puppetry. In addi tion, Jewish camp directors had the opportunity to par ticipate in a Limud, or Torah study session, led by Dr. Judith Hauptman, Professor at Jewish* Theological Seminary. I found the session enlightening; listening to Dr. Hauptman encouraged me to investigate how we can best introduce a significant amount of Jewish content into our 1985 summer program. I am still exploring alternatives. All the experienced profes sionals were more than willing to share their knowledge and questions with each other. Their enthusiasm and serious attention to detail left me overwhelmed and overjoyed. I feel ready for Camp Maccabee 1985, and look forward to sharing my new knowledge with the camp staff, you and your children. -yyyyTp; B’d^TTrrgTryffTTginrgTnnrgTrgTrrgTnnrrgvvTnnnrB 5 o'flTnr8'5'B'Tnnn> b B'5"gTnrb~b~b~bvw^dVtf¥ird b 6~b~b~tf~d o B~trbirbirtf~b~b~irb w>nnnn> o o o Dance Schedule Day Mon. - Thurs.
