l KtttntM, CAirm MRS. BUEWA Homemakers' Changing Role Discussed at Festival By DONNA GEORGE Mra. Buena Steinmetz. former extension family life specialist, addressed an audience of over one hundred persons with the topic. "Meeting Change with Zest" at the Morrow County Homemaker Achievement Festi val Wednesday. May 12 at the Rhea Creek Grans ha.l. Starting by describing some changes that have taken place In human endeavors during the past 50 years. Mrs. Steinmetz emphasized the differences of roles taken by homemakers, jar ytng from the hardworking, full time wife and mother of the Good (?) Ole Days" to the modern woman who is employed outside the home and relies up on electric appliances and help from the family in household chores. She pointed out that an in crease in privileges and decrease in obligations has accompanied this trend. Yet despite these changes in patterns of living, she indicated we still have im portant physical and psycholog ical needs. For example, teen agers need affection, approval and consistency from their par ents, rather than sarcasm, shaming and ridicule. 'Tve ask ed groups of high school stu dents how long it's been since their parents praised them for their good actions," she said, "and they replied by rolling their eyes with the expression of a dying calf." Speaking of counseling teen agers on questions of moral de cisions. Mrs. Steinmetz stressed the fallacies of the "everybody s doing it" argument. -iuu de cide whether an action Is right or moral," she said, "not accord ing to how many people do it, but rather according to whether it will help all of the persons involved to be their best selves. Listing the "Earmarks of Ma turity" she stated that maturity is not indicated by age alone but rather by such characterist ics as self-understanding, reel ings of adequacy and security, Chart your 12 j course ...
