One of the things that was not lost on me, during the evening was the terrific support these kids received from their families.

I have enjoyed the following anonymous material on children titled "Like Silver." like silver, our children are sometimes hidden in the rocky ore of life, angry from the heat of inner fire, a confusion of perplexing passion, mystery, and beauty. Often, they are hostile to' our efforts to free them from their limitations. "Loosening the silver from the grip of the rock is a process that begins with exploration, finding those places where the mineral is exposed, where we can begin our prospecting. " "The child-lik- e silver must be interpreted to determine what lies within the psyche, just as the assayer determines the composition of the complex ores which bear the pre cious metal. ' "Then comes the process of learning how to elicit the best from every child. No two youngsters, like no two silver ores; are ever the same. As silver is revealed in this process, so the child becomes empowered and finds comfort and honor within the family. "How beautiful it is when the molten material flows forth, shining with promise, to cool into the loveliest and most lustrous of gifts, gleaming with promise and future." Shape t child.
