A potluck picnic was held Sunday evening
at the Swimming Pool Park by Beach Park
Board, to hand out achievement awards to
this year's baseball players. Janie Rathbun,

this year's program and thanked parents
and sponsors for their help and support.

and has donated that amount towards next
year's program. Also, Beach Food Center
donated food and drinks for concessions.

cession organizers, reported that approxi-
mately $1500 had been raised. Janie Rathbun

Some of the best learning expe-
riences for your children during
the new school year may occur
outside the classroom. Learning
to get along with other people
is one of them. As your child's
social arena expands to school,
they will begin to recognize the
importance of being accepted
and having friends. Children
want to have buddies and be
invited to birthday, slumber, and
other parties.
Everyone wants to be accept-
ed. It's a desire that begins early
and continues through life. Some
children are more social than
others. Their sociability depends
largely on temperament, an
inborn personality trait. Children
who meet others easily or laugh
a lot may seen to have an advan-
tage, but that's not always the
case. Meeting others easily at an
early age may actually make it
more difficult for an older child
to meet others later on. They will
not have practiced social skills
or had to work on friendships
early on.
A child doesn't have to be a
social butterfly. Their concept of
friendship is different from that
of an adult - and developmen-
tally progressive, as well.
As a preschooler, a child isn't
likely to have a good under-
standing of the loyalty and trust
that are part of friendship. At
the ages of 4 and 5, a child can
enjoy playing with others, take a
break then re-engage.
At 9 or 10, a child usually
develops a greater understand-
Ang of loyalty and some of the
obligations that are attached to
friendship. As a result, having
another child announce, "I don't
want to be your friend," can be a
painful experience.
During middle school years,
children may pair off or form
groups or cliques. Being a mere-
ber of a clique may increase a
child's comfort level or sense of
security. It can be bothersome to
children who are not included.
Parents have little control on
this one and are advised to con-
tinue to encourage the child to
be friendly to everyone. Give the
child time to figure it out.
Adolescent friendships typi-
cally can have an intensity that
is different from adult friend-
ships. Adolescents may have a
large circle of friends or prefer
just a few. Either can be accept-
able - it depends on the young
person. As a child gets older,
their choices will evolve. Some,
such as whether to experiment
with drugs or alcohol, can have
serious consequences. Parents
are encouraged to make their
homes open to their child's
friends, yet remember that their
teen needs to develop their own
social skills.
When rejected by friends, a
child may try to earn accep-
tance by acting out. It's natural
for parents to want to protect
their child, but also important
that parents, not "muddle it up."
There are some circumstances-
if a child may be harmed, for
example - in which parents need
to intervene. Allowing a child to
work through social behaviors
can help in the development of
social skills.
Parents may not always, be
pleased when their child says
'No'. Nurturing the child's ability
to evaluate a situation and know
that he or she has a clear alter-
native - choosing to say 'No' - is
important at any age, but partic-
ularly so during adolescence and
young adult years. In nurturing
a child's self-respect and social
development, parents share the
message "we care about you" to
their child.
