An alternative to teaching
sex education to adolescents
in the cla ssro o m was
presented recently to the
Boring Parents Teacher
Association
Vera McDonald, president
of the C lackam as and
Oregon PTA. told the au
dience at the March 26
meeting. “ There is an
epidem ic in Oregon of

teenage
Statistics reveal that at least
238 pregnancies have occur
red per week between 1975
and 1979 and the rate "may
be higher now.” she said
McDonald spoke to the au
dience of approximately 100
parents on "Adolescent Sex
uality and the Parent.”
Sex among adolescents is
a two fold problem, accor
ding to McDonald She said
most children are reluctant
to talk to parents about sex,
and parents have not had the
input they should on sex
education in the classroom
Because adolescent sex is
widespread and birth defects
are increased with teenage
pregnancy, the March of
Dimes is funding seminars
for parents on adolescent
sexuality Audio cassettes
and manuals are provided
by the March of Dimes to
parents who wish to conduct
seminars.
A, the seminars, parents
become aware of their in
dividual fam ily problems
and learn to communicate
with their children more ef
fectively "M aterials are set
in a non judgemental man
ner,” McDonald said
Four two-hour seminars
are scheduled While a
period of the time may be
structured, the remaining
portion of the seminar is
spent in group discussion
Parents make the final
decision on how they w ill ap
proach their children on the
subject of sex and what they
w ill say.
Oregon is one of several
states providing parents
with this pilot program In
itiated last October, it was
developed to work in con
junction with the PTA No
analysis has been made on
the program's progress
Bank in Gresham, w ill lead
the seminar Bryant has
worked in commercial bank
mg for 12 years and is chair
man of the college s small
business management ad
visory committee
The seminar w ill include
discussions of how the
banker sees the »mails,
business person, how fre
quently the small business
owner should see his banker,
the information required for
banking decisions and the
benefits of being prepared
for a visit to the banker
"Many owners of small
businesses find it difficult to
comm unicate w ith th eir
banker By being prepared
w ith
the in fo rm a tio n
bankers require for a deci
sion, dealing with them can
be a rewarding experience.''
according to Dave Polito,
coordinator of the college's
small business management
program.
This seminar is one in a
series designed to help the
owners and managers of
small businesses improve
their management skills
