Answer by: Glen Jenson, Utah State University Extension Family and Human Development Specialist . SI The media often provides parents with excellent opportunities for discussion regarding family values and human sexuality. With the allegations of extramarital sexual behavior on the part of the U.S. President and the dialog between the experta'Wta whftfltr proper,-improper,- truthful, lies,, private,: public or none ofour business, many of us feel confused. But when chil- dren and youth get this information, they have an even more difficult time processing and understanding the things they see and hear. These types of issues, however, can provide a great opportunity for families to discuss moral and ethical matters and to include family values. Though the discussion may be more frank than some parents feel comfortable in bringing before the family, it is important that parents talk to their children and youth and answer questions to help clear up possible confusion. Consider these discussion ideas. The discussion will likely be easier ifboth parents are present If thats not possible, one can do itjust as well. Be sure to start the discussion when you have time to spent listening. Tailor the discussion to the age of the children or youth. By age 10, most children have a pretty good knowledge of the fundamentals of sexuality. Make the discussion time as relaxed and as possible by not lecturing. Try to make it a time of listening, learning from each other, and providing clarification. Good openers might include any of the following questions. How do you feel about what is being alleged against the President? What if people are accused of things they didnt do? What impact does it have on the individual? What does our constitution say about "innocent until proven guilty? What does our religion teach about morality? What is honesty? As we discuss what a person in the public light is doing, equally, important, is asking, what is appropriate behavior on the part qf anyone pertaining tohumsn sexuality? When is engaging in sexual activity universally wrong, i.e., rape, date rape, incest, prior to marriage, outside of marriage? What problems often come from engaging in sexual activity at the wrong time? What might be the result and consequences of sexual infidelity during marriage? The discussion should be short and should not turn into arguments about guilty or not guilty. This and subsequent discussions should focus not just on what prominent figures are doing or not doing, but rather on the meaning of sexuality within your familys values, what choices bring people the most happiness and why, along with how to make good choices. If bad dunces have been made by family members, it might be good to discuss what the consequences have been and how future problems can be avoided. Spend time trying to learn and share with each other. Hopefully future family discussions can be held as the issues change and children or youth have further questions. Discussions regarding human sexuality should be ongoing and not something parents do once and consider taken care of. Anne Frank Remembered, urday, April 18, at 7:00 Sat- D.m.

We're protecting Gods creation before it requires last minute CPUT, said Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt Under Administration reforms to the Endangered Species Art, we are proving the Art can work early, effectively, and flexibly for all. To generate more success stories like the spotted frog, those progressive reforms should be written into the law. The Conservation Agreement ensures that spotted frogs will be taken care of by a number of Federal and State agencies," said Reed. Harris, the Services Field Supervisor in Utah.' Harris said participants will be able to cany out conservation actions faster and more effectively, with less paperwork and a lighter regulatory burden" than if the frog had been added to the Federal endangered species list Conservation Agreements are an example of Service commitment to protect species through cooperation and partnership whenever possible. Spotted frog populations in Utah have been in decline for years, but have been particularly hardhit in Wasatch Front the Many conservation efforts have already helped eliminate or alleviate pressures on the frog's habitat in these areas. Those efforts have included elimination of a potentially detrimental mosquito control project on Bureau of Land Management land inJuab County, installation of cattle enclosures around springs in the Gandy Salt Marsh complex, acquisition of 126 acres of wetland habitat along the Provo River by the Utah Reclamation Mitigation and Conservation Commission and provision of year-roun-d water flows to the Jordanelle Mitigation Ponds where the frogs overwinter. Future commitments under the Conservation Agreement include extensive surveys, genetic and ecological studies in the Wasatch Front and West Desert ecosystems and continued work with landowners on cattle enclosures. Breeding and habitat research will be conducted and improved livestock management on both Federal and private land is expected. The Utah Reclamation and Conservation Commission plans to acquire and restore an additional 990 acres of riparian habitat suitable to frog enhancement The Conservation Agreement has been signed by the Service, the Utah Department of Natural Resources, Utah Reclamation Mitigation and Conservation Commission, Central Utah Water Conservancy Diatrict, the Bureau ofRecIamation and the Bureau of Land 14. 1998- - Value PAHTS STORES competition Deborah Myrin. daughter of Alarik and Beth Myrin from Altamont has been named an Scolar from the United States Achievement Academy.
