volunteers have given their time to
being good neighbors of the resi-
dents of the center. To increase the
opportunities for community service
and to add new dimensions to the
lives of the residents, the Meadows
Nursing Center Auxiliary is being
formed, and all Back Mountain resi-
dents are invited to become mem-
bers.
If you can spare five or more
hours per month and are willing to
commit this time to working at the
center or with some auxiliary
project or committee, you could
become an active member. What-
ever your skill or interest, we will
find a niche for you. Volunteers
already perform diverse services,
such as sorting and delivering resi-
dents’ mail to bringing in specially
trained dogs that can be petted by
the residents.
Perhaps you could not spare five
hours a month, but want to help
anyway. Then you could be a sustai-
ner member. You would then be
asked to pay annual dues of $5.00
per year. Funds so generated would
help finance the projects of the
auxiliary.
Bi-monthly meetings of the auxil-
iary will be held at the center, and
will be open to all members and the
public at large.
The Core Committee for the for-
mation of the auxiliary will be
endeavoring to reach all Back
Mountain residents by amil, news-
paper publicity, etc. in the next few
weeks, but don’t wait to be asked.
Please call Director of Volunteer
Services, Marily Gregorski, at 675-
8600, or Core Committee Chair,
Catherine Bolinski at 675-5153 if you
have any questions or if you would
like more information.
Initial meeting of the auxiliary
will be held Monday, Nov. 12, at
10:30 a.m. at the Meadows Nursing
Center, Dallas. All memberships
received by Jan. 1, 1985 will be
considered charter members of the
auxiliary.

Stepfamily is a very common
term in today’s scciety. With one
out of every three couples getting
divorced and 80 percent of those
divorced getting remarried, step-
families are a wa)’ of life for many
people.
Dr. William Hukkarinen and his
wife, Marsha Howes, of Dallas have
been married for six years. Both
are divorced from their first spouse.
Between them they have four chil-
dren; Dawes Strickler, 17; and
Sirka Howes (Bill and Marsha’s
daughter) live with them; Jasen
Strickler, 15, iives with Marsha’s
ex-husband in Massachusetts, and
Michael Hakkarinen, 12, lives with
According to Marsha and Bill,
adapting to the stepfamily way of
life can be stressful. For instance,
holiday times which are usually
happy occasions can become very
confusing when one parent is travel-
ing on Christmas to pick up one of
the children, while the other is
saying goodbye to children spending
the holiday with the other spouse.
Bill and Marsha have found that
establishing your own new tradi-
tions can be a very positive way to
settle this problem.
Dealing with the ex-spouse can be
difficult, especially if bitterness pre-
vails. A good rule to follow is to
speak to your ex-spouse only about
things directly relating to the child’s
welfare. Stay away from things like
“Why did you do that?” which will
only antagonize.
Bill and Marsha both noted that
discipline is an area where rules
must be defined. Children must be
made aware that one set of rules
exists at mom’s house while another
set may exist at dad’s, but both sets
must be respected. Bill advises par-
ents to accept the other set of rules
for the child while the child is
staying in that home because you
really can’t do anything about them.
A disagreement often puts the child

right in the middle. Don’t let anger
at your ex-spouse affect the rela-
tionship between your child or cur-
rent spouse and remember to make
sufficient time for the new couple,
Bill cautions. Don’t let problems
with the children and ex-spouse
over-shadow the marriage.
Marsha pointed out that stepchild-
ren and stepparents often think they
should immediately love the new
child or parent in a stepfamily. This
is a fallacy. Both stepparents and
stepchildren should give themselves
time to get acquainted with their
new family, learning to like, then
possibly to love them.
There are many positive aspects
to stepfamilies, too. The family has
different boundaries. There are four
parents and eight grandparents to
love the children. Families become
much more flexible and the chil-
dren’s experiences become much
broader.
