Earlier this month, park district officials were hopeful a plan to build a 57-vehicle parking lot would be approved at the Jan. 14 meeting. But park district general manager Rafael Payan told The Pine Cone his agency learned just a week ago that more extensive traffic studies are now required. Without the parking lot, the park is open to the public on a limited, reservation-only basis. Vandevere — and many others, he said — would like to see it open without such restrictions as soon as possible.

Save the sewage plant

THROUGHOUT ALMOST all of human history, contagious diseases were what killed people — diseases such as the plague, typhus, dysentery, yellow fever and malaria. But today, especially in the developed world, these diseases are almost nonex- istent, and have been that way so long they’ve pretty much been forgotten. Today, it’s illnesses that form inside our own bodies that kill us — things like hypertension, heart disease and cancer. In most people, these illnesses take a long time to develop, which means they die at an advanced age. But you should consider yourself lucky if you succumb to heart failure at 85 — at least you did- n’t waste away from cholera when you were 25. Indeed, from a health point of view, everybody on the earth is lucky to be alive today instead of in any previous time in history. Most people don’t see it that way — they’re too busy complaining about the cost of hospital visits, or the fact that free medical care isn’t available to as many people as they think it should be — but the truth will be evident to anybody who gives it a moment’s thought. And one thing that’s worth more than a moment’s thought is the infra- structure that silently protects us from the contagious illnesses that killed our forefathers. A good example of the vital processes and facilities that perform their tasks so well they’re taken for granted is the local sewage treatment plant. What is a sewage treatment plant? It’s a place where bacteria-laden and dis- “Fourth tree NE of Carmelo and Eleventh ... four pine cones on ground, bark missing on two sides, one cracked lower limb ....’ ease-carrying water is made safe so it can be discharged back into the environ- ment, including the places from which our drinking water is drawn.

By LISA CRAWFORD WATSON

THIS YEAR, parents across the country are resolving to have kinder, gentler, and more peaceful and patient interac- tions with their children. Again. The resolution indicates a consciousness, which actually could inspire improved parent-child relations. But the first time Mom and Dad dive into an angry response to their 2- year-old’s, 12-year-old’s or 22-year-old’s insult, they are like- ly to label themselves failures in communicating with their child. Again. “We all have our vulnerabilities,” says Carolyn Kelleher, a local marriage and family therapist, who also serves as the counselor at Chartwell School in Seaside. “No one likes to be disrespected, because it doesn’t feel good.

Their question is, ‘Do I mat- ter, and can I get what I want and need?’” By the time children become “tweens,” on the cusp between childhood and teenage years, they need structure, guidance, rules and boundaries — to help them navigate the worlds they straddle. They start looking to clarify their iden- tities, develop their sexuality, expand their independence and increase their mastery. Considerable development is under way in the cerebral cortex of the brain, affecting their logical thinking and executive functioning.
