Tha largNt rteorded snowrflaktt on Montana In 1887 They wtft 15 inchat in diamatai The fourth and last in the 1978 series of AKA Deb Mothers' Chats was held Sunday, Nov. 12, at Richard B. Harrison Library here. Soror Susie V. Perry, chair person, presiding, presented Basileus Mary Aldrich to give greetings and thanks from the chapter to parents and con sultants for splendid participa tion and cooperation, in the four programs, and Soror Thelma Anders, who prepared a responsive LITANY FOR THANKSGIVING as the me ditation. Dr. R. S. Gaither, a local Physician of the 0. B. team. Haywood. Gaither and Flanag an. was introduced by Soror Susie Perry as a physician, who was willing to take time out of a busy schedule to chat with the mothers. Dr. Gaither is a graduate of N. C. Central University and Meharry Medi cal College. He began his practice of medicine in Raleigh in 1975, after spending two years in the U. S. Army rttn-tm) at Fort Bragg. He Is currently located in the Sunny brook Multi-Specialty MedictU Center. His affiliations include the L. A. Scruggs Medical Society, the Wake County Medical Society, State and National Medical Society, Kap pa Alpha Pei, Widow Son Masonic Lodge and Martin St. Baptist Church. Dr. Gaither focused his message on Approaches To Adolescent Health In The Seventies. The medical profes sion became more aware of these special needs in the sixties and seventies. In be tween the ages of 13-18 years, one is not truly a child, nor an adult. To put them in a slot and know what to do about their pr(^lems, needs our attention and consideration. Their char acteristic change from time to time. Parents ask. Why Are My Children so different from Me? Reason they are growing up in a vastly different world, with fast communication; from segregated schools to integrat ed ones; pressures they have to deal with; their generations; few are in the suburbs with new opportunities; decline of the influence of organized religion (not the church itself) which lacks what it once had; human values have changed; open discussions on any topic; peer acceptance is paramount from their friends; great i^ysicial changes; self image is chang ing ; interested in opposite sex; and vocational achievement. There are some Specifics that need to spoken to: (1) Separation from parents: Dependence of child on the parent becomes less and less as the child enters adolesc ence, and is not easy for the parent to accept this fact, and also the child fears losing security and stability in the world that is little known to them. They may try out new things, fri^tened and angry for not being adults. The family links can be too strong, so that the child will test his parent out, with open hostility or the ties may be too weak, may lead to bizarre behavior patterns to satisfy their own ego patterns. It may lead to support of their peer group. They ask ’’Who Am 1?" They need support while they are breaking away. What is normal for them? Fads are now adopted. Do you remem ber your fads? (2) Budding Sextialtiy: This may lead to conflict to make a Vision (rf what is acceptable or not acceptable. (3) Career Oioice: Opportuni ties are now opened, that are unlimited for black women. They need your suf^rt. (4) Health Problems: Infections and Accidents. They need Primary Health Care, and Counseling, and Confidentiali ty without fear of retribution. Health problems are: Obesity, Allergy, Menstrual, Diabetes, Drugs, Alcohol, Smoking. VD, Cavities, Emotional Disorders, Contractives. The Goal is Prevention. (5) Sexual Activi ty: Consequences are preg nancies. abortions. VD and life long disorders unless correct ed. (6) Drugs; Hard drugs are on the decline, but Alcohol is being used more, even by the 13-year-old class. Alcohol is so readily available and also seen used at home by the parents. (7) Mental Health; family breakdown and peer pressures and other problems lead to mental illness. (8) Smoking; Teens try to be sophisticated, and begin to smoke. Try Prevention. (Literature is a- vailable to help break the habit. (9) School stresses: Busing and academic pres sures: These problems need the help of the per^, teac^» counselor, and air who CJkre about youth. ■ Even with all the problems, the parent must stress values, and let go, gllhou^it is herd to do.(W.” ; . -,4.
