School mum on bad behavior complaints against a school board member during sporting events Nelson denies Sun’s request for records without school board approval

BY ERIK EISELE AND LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — School administrators are refusing to release information that could answer questions about alleged inappropriate behavior by a Conway school board member dating as far back as 2007.

Five former Conway school board mem-

bers have confirmed they received numerous complaints during their tenure about Randy Davison, a school board member since 2007, for his tendency to badly lose his composure at school sporting events.

"I can confirm there were instances that were brought to our attention,” said former Conway school board chair George Fredette.

“We did have complaints from other schools.”

Former board member and chair Sheryl Kovalik also acknowledged getting complaints, as did Michael DiGregorio, Kelley Murphy and Alaina Starkey, all former members. see MUM page 10

SAU 9 plays it safe with decision to keep Nelson

Donations you can bank on

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

Superintendent given two more years; board says continuity needed in difficult job market and with possible change in makeup of SAU CONWAY — School superintendent Carl Nelson is putting off retirement for a third time.

The SAU 9 board voted 19-1 to extend Nelson's contract through the 2014 school year on Tuesday night. The board based the twoyear extension on a difficult market for hiring superintendent's according to the New Hampshire School Board's Association and the need for continuity based upon the possible return of Madison to the SAU. see NELSON page 9

Quake nudges Eaton Minor earthquake felt in Conway

BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

North Conway Daycare kids express their joy while delivering food they’ve collected for the Mount Washington Radio/ Vaughan Community Service annual radio food drive at the First Church of Christ in North Conway Wednesday. Over 420 frozen turkeys and dozens of boxes of food were collected at the drive for depleted stocks in seven area food banks as the holidays approached. Volunteers and directors expressed this year’s added need not only because they were starting from empty shelves from an increased demand plus the upcoming holiday baskets prepared for families, but, also as winter heating season approaches family budgets will stretched by the decline in home heating assistance which they say will likely cause further demand.

Novelist fights the tide by opening bookstore

–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– DIGEST––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

NASHVILLE (NY Times) — After a beloved local bookstore closed here last December and another store was lost to the Borders bankruptcy, this city once known as the Athens of the South, rich in cultural tradition and home to Vanderbilt University, became nearly barren of bookstores.

On Wednesday, Ann Patchett, the acclaimed author of “Bel Canto” and “Truth and Beauty,” will open Parnassus Books, an independent bookstore that is the product of six months of breakneck planning and a healthy infusion of cash from its owner.

“I have no interest in retail; I have no interest in opening a bookstore,” Patchett said. “But I also have no interest in living in a city without a bookstore.”

Patchett is well aware that brick-and-mortar bookstores are closing regularly under pressure from online sales and e-books. The American Booksellers Association, a trade group, currently has about 1,900 independent bookstores as members, down from about 2,400 in 2002. But she is aspiring to join a small band of bookstore owners who have found patches of old-fashioned success in recent years by being small and sleek, with personal service, intimate author events and a carefully chosen rotation of books.

Arrest in White House shooting WASHINGTON (NY Times) — Federal law enforcement authorities on Wednesday arrested a 21-year-old Idaho man suspected of shooting with a semiautomatic rifle at the White House on Friday night, as the Secret Service reported finding that at least one bullet had indeed struck the presidential residence.

The Secret Service said that the suspect, Oscar Ramiro Ortega-Hernandez, was arrested at a hotel near Indiana, Pa., at about 12:35 p.m. by the Penn-

sylvania State Police, acting on information from Secret Service agents in Pittsburgh.

“Ortega-Hernandez is currently in the custody of the Pennsylvania State Police,” the statement said.

The man, previously referred to in a warrant as Oscar Ramiro Ortega, has a background of legal problems and is said to have a history of aberrant behavior. During an encounter earlier in the day on Friday with the police in nearby Arlington County, Va.,

he said he was from Idaho Falls. The police there said he had been reported missing last month by his family.

Gunfire had been heard in the vicinity of the White House and the National Mall shortly after 9 p.m. on Friday night, and the Secret Service said its officers had witnessed a car speeding away, westbound, on Constitution Avenue. A few minutes later, the car was found about seven blocks away, abandoned, with an assault-style semiautomatic rifle inside.

Judge bars eviction of Boston protesters, for now BOSTON (NY Times) — A judge granted a temporary order on Wednesday requiring the city to refrain from any police action to evict the Occupy Boston demonstrators from Dewey Square, where a small city of about 150 tents has functioned for a month and a half.

Judge Frances A. McIntyre, citing the protesters’ right to free speech in her decision, said the city would need a court order in order to evict protesters, unless there are emergent circumstances like a fire, medical emergency or outbreak of violence.

While police officers have raided protest sites in cities like New York, Oakland, Calif., and Portland, Ore., law enforcement in Boston has been relatively

tolerant of the original encampment, although an attempt last month to expand the camp there was met with more than 140 arrests. City officials say that, although they are monitoring the demonstration daily, they have no plans to move in on the camp in Dewey Square, which is a public park.

But after hearing of the New York Police Department’s raid on Occupy Wall Street on Tuesday morning, Howard Cooper, a lawyer working in cooperation with local chapters of the National Lawyers Guild and the American Civil Liberties Union, filed for a temporary restraining order and a more permanent injunction that could prevent a similar surprise raid.

Eyeing China, U.S. expands military ties to Australia

CANBERRA, Australia (NY Times) — President Obama and Prime Minister Julia Gillard of Australia announced plans on Wednesday for a sustained new American military presence in Australia, a deployment of 2,500 troops aimed at signaling that the United States intends to counterbalance a rising China.

The agreement with Australia, though involving a relatively small number of troops, is nonetheless the first long-term expansion of the American military presence in the Pacific since the end of the Vietnam War. It comes despite budget cuts facing the Pentagon and a strong negative reaction from Chinese leaders, who have accused the United States of seeking to raise military tensions in the region.

“With my visit to the region I am making it clear that the United States is stepping up its commitment to the entire Asia-Pacific region,” Obama said at a news conference with Gillard soon after his arrival here in Australia’s capital.

Jury finds Manchester woman guilty of murdering her friend

BY KATHRYN MARCHOCKI THE UNION LEADER

MANCHESTER — A jury rejected Molly B. Martel’s claim she was only defending herself from close friend and former co-worker Stephanie Campbell and found her guilty today of two counts of second-degree murder.

Martel’s lips quivered as bailiffs immediately stepped forward to handcuff her wrists behind her back once the jury foreman announced the first guilty verdict for acting knowingly when she stabbed the 27-year-old mother of three four times during a city street fight Nov. 2, 2010.

Dressed in a sweater and skirt with her straight, dark-blonde hair neatly pulled back in a pony tail, Martel, 23, struggled to keep her emotions in check as the foreman read the second guilty verdict for reckless seconddegree murder.

The nine female and three male jurors reached their verdicts on the seventh day of the Hillsborough County Superior Court murder trial after deliberating about 2 1/2 hours over two days.

Martel faces up to life in prison on the charges. Judge Gillian L. Abramson said sentencing would take place in 60 to 90 days.

“I’m happy Stephanie got justice and her kids got justice,” said Patricia Gage, who was a neighbor of Campbell’s and testified as a state’s witness at trial.

Assistant Attorney General Michael Lewis thanked the jury for their service and Manchester police for conducting “an investigation that was of the highest quality and resulted in a

just verdict.”

“It (the verdict) provides some measure of justice to Stephanie Campbell’s family and her friends and her neighbors and people who cared about her very deeply,” Lewis said outside the courtroom.

A 2006 graduate of Merrimack High School who played on the school’s softball team, Martel wept at the defense table while seated between her defense attorneys. As bailiffs led her from the courtroom, she cast a tearful glance back at her grandparents, who sat through the entire trial. Her grandparents left the court without comment.

Defense attorneys Charles J. Keefe and Eric R. Wilson would not comment on the verdict. Wilson said they need to review the entire case before deciding on whether to appeal.

Martel and Campbell, who lived at 28 Dutton St., were close friends and had worked together at a residential cleaning company. The two got into a profanity-laced shouting match — with Campbell yelling from an upstairs window in her apartment and Martel outside her car screaming — earlier in the evening of Nov. 2, 2010.

Campbell, who recently broke up with her long-time boyfriend, Anthony Santos, wrongly suspected Martel was romantically involved with Santos and accused Martel of “sleeping with my baby’s daddy.” Santos is the father of Campbell’s two sons.

Martel left, but returned to Campbell’s apartment house about 9 p.m. with her friend and “business associate,” Gerald Turner, 32, a convicted felon who had multiple charges pending against him.

Disappointed in exclusion of Poquette To the editor: I read with interest your recent celebratory account of Memorial Hospital’s 100 years of service to the valley.

Especially interesting is the Timeline feature. Included in the Timeline are the names and dates of appointment of all the administrators who have served the hospital, except one: Gary Poquette. He served over a

quarter of a century, longer than anyone, I would guess.

In my opinion, the hospital would not be what it is today without his expert guidance.

It is disappointing that the authors of your publication chose to exclude recognition of Mr. Poquette’s enormous contribution.

Roderick Forsman Intervale

Armed society doesn’t mean safe society To the editor: An armed society does not mean a safe society. Citizens carrying guns do not discourage criminals from committing crime. Armed police do not deter criminals from committing crimes.

According to the National Law Enforcement Memorial Fund (www.nleomf. org/) 61 armed police officers were killed in 2010 and 54 have been killed to date this year.

Mr. George Clausen has used the standard, but unproved, argument that we should feel safer because citizens are permitted to go around armed. He cited a book by John Lott that was debunked twice, the latest by Ian Ayers and John J. Donohue III (http://islandia.law. yale.edu/ayers/Ayres_Dono-

hue_comment.pdf) One can also use the FBI Uniform Crime Reports (http://www.fbi.gov/aboutus/cjis/ucr/ucr) to see that Illinois, with restrictive gun laws, the violent crime rate went from 653.8 per 100,000 in 2000 to 435.2 in 2010 while Vermont with liberal gun laws the crime rate rose from 113.5 to 130.2 over the same period. The national trend for violent crimes was downward.

I am not anti-gun. I own five handguns and three rifles. When I lived in New Hampshire I had a concealed carry permit. I am a gun owner who is smart enough not to believe the hype before verifying the data.

What can only one person do to have an impact?

To the editor: If you’ve ever had the feeling, when confronted with the issues of the day, that you’re only one person and what can you possibly do which will have any impact, the answer has arrived.

The Occupation Movement, which started on Wall Street and has spread like wildfire across the country, is now in Carroll County.

Occupation Conway had its first event in the form of a sidewalk protest at the intersection of Routes 153 and 16 in Conway last Tuesday, which

nearly 70 people attended, with a second planned for the same location on Thursday, Nov. 17, from 4:30 p.m. on. Bring a sign or just come as you are and lend moral support. There is now a video available on YouTube titled “The Faces of the Occupation in New Hampshire.” To view, click on this link or enter “The Faces of the Occupation in New Hampshire – Carroll County Version” in your You Tube search box.

Unemployment stats tell different story than Hoyt’s To the editor: Ted Hoyt’s letter (Tuesday, Nov. 8) about the impact of impact of government policies on employment in New Hampshire is an excellent example of how careless use of statistics can mislead. Mr. Hoyt states that the present Legislature took over in January, 2011 when unemployment in the state was 6.1 percent and the most recent unemployment figure for the state was 5.4 percent. (Mr. Hoyt appears to mix data in a way that is illegitimate, since his figure for January is from one statistical series without seasonal adjustment while his figure for June is from another series that includes seasonal adjustment.) The drop in unemployment he attributes to the action of the new legislature.

Most bills passed by the new legislature were written to go into effect on July 1, 2011 or later, to be sure that there was time for passage in both houses and action by the governor.

The major budget bills were acted on

in June and went into effect on July 1. Thus it is unlikely that significant effects on unemployment of action by the new legislature would appear much before July.

Looked at in this light, the unemployment statistics tell a different story than the one Mr. Hoyt spins for us. Using seasonally adjusted data we find that New Hampshire’s unemployment peaked at 6.7 percent between September 2009 and January 2010.

From then to May 2011, while state policy and budget reflected actions of a Democratic legislature, unemployment dropped steadily to 4.8 percent.

From June 2011, unemployment rose steadily to the recently reported 5.4 percent, a rise that coincides with the effects of actions by the new, Republican-controlled legislature. In other words, Democratic policies helped to create jobs; Republican policies have taken them away.

Stimulus worked just fine for N.H. and our nation To the editor: In response to Maynard Thomson’s letter of Nov. 11: I have read most of Maynard’s letter and have always been amazed at the scarcity of facts and how quickly he resorts to name calling.

One of his inaccurate facts is that the Stimulus money went to “handouts to Obama’s political allies.”

Maynard does not seem to understand that most of the Stimulus funds were distributed to governors — who obviously were not all of the president’s “political allies” and that they chose the projects not the president. There was no favoritism here. The federal government’s projects were chosen by the federal departments, like the long overdue and much needed work at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard.

In fact, a few days ago, one particular project chosen by Gov. Lynch and the Executive Council was touted as a rousing success in New Hampshire — the new access road at the Manchester airport. The project created 200 good jobs and will be an economic boon. Even the hypocritical Rep. Frank Guinta (apparently) agrees. He showed up to claim

credit for this Stimulus project when he always opposed the Stimulus, opposes using federal money to help out state, and of course had nothing to do with this project. But he said, “It’s going to help us with our tourism, our economy, and it’s going to provide us with greater flexibility for our residents, our business commuters, and those visiting out state. It’s a real example of how when we put our mind to it we can accommplish anything we want to accomplish.

Yup, that’s what the federal government can accomplish all right.

The Stimulus has worked just fine for New Hampshire and our nation.

Maynard also continues to bad mouth Medicare. One of Medicare’s problems is that our current health care system is broken. We spend about $8,000 per person per year for health care. The next highest expenditure is France, which spends about $5,000 per year. That might be fine if we got value for the expense but we don’t. Most indicators of health care system performance rate is below other developed nations. President Obama’s health care reform will help solve this financial problem.

Sous chef position back on the menu as a warrant article

CONWAY — After being funded through Perkins grants for the first few years and by a federal jobs grant this school year, the future of the sous chef position at the MWC Career and Technical Center will be in the hands of voters next April.

MWV Career and Technical Director Lori Babine presented her budget for the 2012-13 school year to the Conway School Board's Budget Committee (all seven board member plus Jane Gray, of Eaton, who chairs the SAU 9 Board) last week indicated there will be a warrant article for the sous chef position.

The article seeks $38,305, which would represent 70 percent of the post while the remaining 30 percent would be generated through funds raises at the school's Mineral Springs Cafe.

The Cafe, site of the culinary arts program under the umbrella of the Mount Washington Valley Career and Technical Center at Kennett High School, is thriving. Now in its fifth year, the program has become so popular that there's actually a student waiting list to take the course.

The sous chef position was funded since its creation four years ago by a Perkins grant which the district can no longer apply for. The initial intent was for revenue from the Mineral Springs Cafe to cover the position, but that has not happened and in all likelihood will not.

The school board last year spring was considering a warrant article seeking $28,700 (half of the employee's salary and benefits package), representing an additional 2 cents per $1,000, but did not have to go that route. School superintendent Carl Nelson informed the board last March the district was receiving a federal grant for over $100,000 and that money can be used to fund positions such as the sous chef.

Babine explained to the school board the student-run restaurant is only open three days a week for 90 minutes at a time. The restaurant has been able to increase its revenues by expanding its commercial catering along with providing dinner to Eagle Academy students through a grant the district received.

Babine said the restaurant would need to be open five days a week for QUAKE from page one

U.S. Geological Survey Geophysicist Don Blakeman described a 1.6 magnitude earthquake as “tiny, tiny” and “completely insignificant.” Earthquakes of that size happen all the time throughout the United States, he said.

“It’s just the way the Earth works,” said Blakeman.

No one reported the earthquake to the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office, said a dispatcher.

The U.S.GS website offers an explanation of what the Richter scale means.

The explanation says a 5.3 earthquake might be considered moderate and 6.3 quake might be considered to be strong.

“Because of the logarithmic basis of the scale, each whole number increase in magnitude represents a tenfold increase in measured amplitude; as an estimate of energy, each whole number step in the magnitude scale corresponds to the release of about 31 times

more than 90 minutes at a time to approach the funds needed.

"It's difficult to get the hours up there," she said. "We're not a full-service restaurant, we're a learning lab."

Gray supports the sous-chef post. "If you cut the position I think you'll have the program collapse," she said.

Last spring, Richard Mattei, who oversees the culinary program, spoke about the importance of having sous chef Tim Remillard in the kitchen.

"We're not a one-person shop," he said. "If you don't have two people, you can not run things. The sous chef is basically the second in command. I'd like to get the named changed culinary instructor. Tim does a lot of hands on stuff with the kids and that allows me to do a lot more individual stuff. To me, it's a perfect partnership and it benefits the kids tremendously. With the Culinary II kids, I'm able to have nine spend a week with me while Tim has nine with him and then we flip flop."

Babine is urging the board to support the sous chef position.

"Without a sous chef the culinary arts program will limit our students' opportunities and force the program and services to be scaled back to insure the safety of our students and limit liability," she wrote, Oct. 19 to the board. "… The sous chef title does not accurately reflect the job responsibility of this position. This person shares responsibility for the daily operations of the classroom and the restaurant. He assists the instructor and has become a valuable mentor and coach to the students. Having a second educator in the program has led to catering opportunities at an affordable cost to the community.

"Mineral Spring Cafe is open to the public three days per week for lunch," Babine continued, "provides take-out evening meals, daily pizzas for the school store to asset them in a profitmaking vetoer, the Kiwanis-Rotary Scholarship Dinner, Veterans Day luncheon, Freedom Church Thanksgiving desserts, Angels and Elves fund-raiser pancake breakfast, soups for Bowls for Hunger and many other community events. The of the sous chef position will haver a major negative impact on the education of our students and the operation of our hands on learning at the Mineral Spring Cafe."

more energy than the amount associated with the preceding whole number value,” states the U.S.GS. A handful of people reported on The Conway Daily Sun’s Facebook page that they felt the quake. The earthquake wasn’t insignificant to Ben Trolled.

“It was so severe at my house that my flat screen tv fell of the wall and is now broken,” Ben Trolled wrote.

Tammy Johnson Armstrong wrote, “Yes, I heard it loud and clear shook our house at 10:57 we live near Ham Ice Arena in Conway.”

Joseph Dickinson wrote, “Yes we felt it here we are near Kcf. at first I thought it was a truck or something it shock the house and there was a sound like a big rock being dumped out of a dump truck.”

The last time Mount Washington Valley residents reported feeling an earthquake was Aug. 22 when a 5.8 magnitude earthquake shook the East Coast from North Carolina to Maine.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Thursday, November 17, 2011— Page 9

NELSON from page one

Once planning to retire in 2010, Nelson agreed to stay on the job through 2011. In 2009, he agreed to stay until June, 2012. Tuesday, he happily agreed to stay at the helm for a 15th and 16th year.

"I have to say I do enjoy the job," he said. "Both Missy (his wife) and I love it here. We think the valley is a great place to be. I'm very pleased to be able to work with the school boards and our community to try to raise the level of education a few more notches over the next couple of years."

The SAU 9 board voted 19-1 (Colleen Cormack, of Albany voted in the minority) to extend Nelson's contract following a brief 15 minute non-public session — something it had not done on prior contact extensions with Nelson.

James Sabina, of Albany School Board; Jane Gray, Pat Philbrick and Chris Kennedy, of Eaton School Board; John Skelton, Dick Klement, Randy Davison, Lynne Brydon, Janine McLauchlan and Syndi White, of the Conway School Board; Vicki Harlow, Rob Clark, Nancy Kelemen and Michael Murphy, of the Bartlett School Board; George and Nancy Holmes, of the Hart's Location School Board and Lauren Synnott, Fred Nemeth and Genn Anzaldi, of the Jackson School Board, all voted to extend Nelson's contract.

"It's very humbling to have that type of support," Nelson said. "There are a lot of people who work very hard in this district. I'm lucky to be around such good people."

Nelson, who receives a salary of $110,003 (excluding benefits), could be in line for a 3.6 percent raise next year, something all SAU employees will receive if the board continues to follow the Social Security Cost of Living scale.

Gray, chair of the SAU 9 Board, explained the decision to extend Nelson's contract.

"The (SAU 9) Executive Board met with the New Hampshire School Board's Association recently they told us they don't believe it's the optimum time to be looking for a superintendent based on the current economy and the possible field of candidates," she said.

Gray added that with Madison currently in the midst of a withdrawal study that could see the town leave SAU 13 and return to SAU 9, "it's a rather complicated process and really needs someone who knows the history and demographics of the situation."

"We asked Carl to give us two more years and he has very graciously agreed and we thank him."

Cormack and White made a motion for it the contract to be only a one year extension but that vote failed 18-2.

"I think there's always a certain fear of change," Cormack said. "I think we should honor Carl's request to retire.

When someone makes a decision to retire it comes with a lot of thought and they are ready to retire. The last time we extended his contract was he wanted to see the dropout rate get to zero. I think there are always going to be reasons (not to retire. I don't think it's appropriate to ask more of him."

Klement thought it might be time to accept Nelson's request, but had a

change of opinion.

"I too started thinking that it was time for Carl to leave, but then I started watching Madison TV and seeing the withdrawal process and it frightened the dickens out of me.

I thought we just couldn't overcome this sort of hurdle at this time."

Davison spoke in favor of retaining Nelson citing that it had been one of his goals to have Madison, Tamworth and Freedom return under the SAU 9 umbrella. He believes Nelson is right person to lead that charge.

"Carl is in a better position than any new superintendent to help this district out, he knows the demographics," Davison said.

"I think there are good people out there," Cormack countered. "If Carl got hit by a bus tomorrow, what would happen, would the district crumble?"

White agreed with Cormack about change.

"Change can be very scary, but I find a new person can bring a lot of new energy and ideas with them and cane come into a district and put their stamp on things," she said.

Harlow, chair of the Bartlett board, is pleased Nelson is staying at the helm of the SAU. "I think you've done a wonderful job in every way," she said at the meeting "I want to thank him for staying.

I certainly hate to see the day he does retire. There are going to be some pretty big shoes that we will need to fill.

"Carl came to us as certainly an experienced and seasoned administrator and has been so helpful with legal issues and state laws and negotiations," Harlow continued. "I certainly credit him as having been a major player in the new high school.

He just never gave up and hung in there — he knew what needed to happen and kind of kept us at the table. His leadership style as a consensus builder rather than being an authoritarian seems to have worked for our district. He's always been available for any board business any time I've called him. He certainly makes every board feel just as important as any other, he doesn't necessarily play favorites at all."

Gray and Harlow have continually marveled at Nelson's work ethic and meeting schedule.

"I think part of that work ethic was instilled in me at an early age by my dad," he said. "He always said if people are gong to pay you a buck for need to get them a buck and quarter worth of effort."

Nelson is looking forward to the next few years.

"There are still a lot of challenges ahead for us," he said. "One of course is what happens with SAU 13. SAU 13 and 9 students end up at the same high school and we need to make sure that students get the quality education and background they need to get to that point."

Nelson, while looking ahead to retirement after 46 years in education, including 34 as a school superintendent, said his stint in the Mount Washington has been his best stop.

"I would not have traded it for anything," he said. "It has been the best personal and professional move I've made. As I said earlier, Miss and I think the Valley is a great place."

But while former school officials acknowledge the complaints exist, school administrators denied a formal request by the Sun for copies of those letters.

“Legal council for the Conway School District has advised me that in their opinion the items do not constitute government records,” Superintendent Carl Nelson said in a written response to the Sun’s Right-To-Know request.

“The items contain information of a confidential nature and disclosure without consent of the individuals may constitute a breach of those individuals’ right to privacy...”

Several members of the school board said Wednesday, however, that they have questions about how this matter was being handled. They did not learn about the request for records until two weeks after the request was first submitted and several days after Nelson had already sent out the letter denying the request.

“I found out Monday night,” board member Dick Klement said, when a Sun reporter mentioned the request during public comments at the school board meeting. “We were looking at one another saying what the heck is going on.”

“I have concerns that I had to hear about it from a reporter,” school board member Syndi White said.

Klement, who has been on the board throughout Davison’s tenure, was unwilling to comment whether he about the complaints the five former board members all say the school received.

“Until I talk to people I won’t say anything,” he said. He had to confer with the rest of the board. “The problem is the information I have is stamped confidential.”

He did acknowledge, however, that embarrassing information about public officials like school board members, selectmen or budget committee members that is received by the agency should be made public and is not protected by privacy concerns.

Klement and White were not the only board members with only cursory knowledge of the request, the refusal and the records the administration was refusing to release.

“Nobody on the board has looked

Randy Davison

at these documents,” school board chair Janine McLauchlin said. She received the initial request for the documents at the same time it went to Superintendent Nelson, but she relied on Superintendent Nelson and the school’s attorney to determine whether the records should be considered confidential. She is not a lawyer, she said, and would not know how to evaluate whether records were subject to open government laws.

She did say, however, that she intended to go to the school administrative offices herself to see what the confidential files actually contain, something she had not done previously out of concern for Davison’s privacy.

Davison, meanwhile, has been unwilling to comment on any of the alleged complaints. He has, however, been quick to defend himself regarding a recent incident that got him banned from Berlin school grounds — the incident that first brought the old complaints to prominence.

“I was a victim,” Davison said. “I've been more boisterous at other games."

Berlin officials were unwilling to comment about or release a copy of a no trespass letter the Berlin school sent Davison following the September 6 soccer match, but according to Davison, "I should have never gotten that letter." see next page

It was a Berlin parent who started berating him and a Conway bus driver, he said. "She went ballistic. Some of the words that parent said were really bad. I won't repeat them.”

Davison said he was only complementary of the Berlin squad at the September 6 soccer match, even praising standout goalie Curtis Arsenault.

"I said they're really going to miss him because he such a good athlete," Davison said. "I will admit that I am passionate about sports, but I don't think I crossed the line."

He said at halftime, he and the bus driver were walking up a hill away from the field when a Berlin female parent confronted them.

"I didn't say anything," he said, "all I did was support the bus driver."

The woman challenged the bus driver to a fight, Davison said, and he was concerned the bus driver might get hurt. Another parent called over the Berlin athletic director, who recognized Davison.

“The athletic director saw me when he came over and said, 'Ah, it's you.'"

Davison does acknowledge he has a history in Berlin.

"I did have a conversation up there in 2007 when our kids were really getting hammered," he said. "I said something to the parents that their kids were acting like thugs and it's a pity Berlin doesn't have a football team. I was sticking up for our kids."

Davison said he was told there would be an investigation into the incident, but neither he nor the bus driver were interviewed for their side of events. He received the no trespass order in days that followed the game. He is barred from Berlin school grounds for one year.

The bus driver submitted a letter relaying her version of events, but school officials have been unwilling to provide a copy. Davison, however, denied any wrongdoing.

"I do know that I was not out of control,” he said, “and my behavior did not warrant this letter."

But while Davison was surprised by Berlin’s reaction to the September incident, others who served with him on the school board and have witnessed him at sports games are not.

"I think it's very unfortunate, but it does not surprise me," former school board member Kelley Murphy said.

She was on the board with Davison until 2010 and knew about the old complaints. "He has been degrading at times. At times you just want to cringe because it reflects badly upon our community."

"We discussed how to address those complaints,”

former board member and current selectman DiGregorio said. “I voiced my opinion that it could not be handled in non-public session because Randy is a public figure. The consensus was to talk to him. We asked him to show better sportsmanship."

Because of that agreement the complaints never went public.

Superintendent Nelson directed questions about the school’s recent refusal to the school’s attorney, John Teague. Teague argued Davison’s action on the sidelines are part of his private life, not part of his role as a board member, and therefore are not subject to public review.

“We’re not just trying to obstruct the public’s right to know,” he said. The school is trying to strike the right balance between openness and privacy.

Davison, however, acknowledges sporting events represent part of his public role as a school board member.

“I love to go to the games,” he said. “I think it's a good practice for all board members to go and support the teams."

His former colleagues agree on that point.

"As parents and prominent members of the community when you put yourself out there,” Murphy said. “You're in the public eye 110 percent of the time. You can't pick and choose what hat you're going to wear and when you're going to wear it.

I've told Randy you can't decide I'm going to be the wild fan tonight and then the school board member tomorrow. You can't pick and choose those boundaries — he's out there as a school board member the whole time."

Murphy, who headed the board's co-curricular committee during her tenure, said she included extensive sportsmanship language in the school's athletic code specifically directed at Davison.

"People have to be held responsible for their behavior," she said. "We expect our athletes to be role models and our coaches and administrators should be held to the same standards. It's a very unfortunate situation to draw negative attention to our sportsmanship at Kennett when so many of our teams have won sportsmanship awards."

DiGregorio pointed out it is Davison who has been the champion of accountability when it applies to students.

“Randy has led the charge that if a student athlete misbehaves either on or off school property there should be repercussions,” he said. "However, the school board has not, or perhaps cannot in their situation, addressed Randy's behavior. I understand Randy's passion, but any elected official has to be held to a higher standard than our athletes.”

Flora ‘Flo’ Louise Gunn Flora "Flo" Louise Gunn, 68, of Madison, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, Nov 15, 2011 at Mineral Springs in North Conway.

Born on Dec. 5, 1942 in Rochester to Marion Louise (Hayes) and Charles Ira Day, Flo grew up in Newburyport, Mass. with her brother, Billy, and sisters, Nancy and Donna. She was predeceased by her mother, father, step-father, "Gus," and her sister, Donna.

She shared the past 35 years with the love of her life, Fred, and enjoyed nothing more than having a cookout and inviting family and friends, who travelled from near and far to enjoy her baked beans.

Flo was always making, learning or doing something new. Her interests took her from crafts to electronic games, photography and her laptop computer.

Flo was blessed to have two dear girlfriends in her life, Charlotte (whom she lost to cancer) and Teri, who loved to get into "trouble" with her, joke and pull pranks on Ed and Fred. She was blessed to have additional neighbors like Delores and Rick, Kip and Marnie and Jackie and Tom who enjoyed gathering at the house to share conversation, food and time. She loved to see wildlife, ducks, raccoons, deer, turkeys etc. in her yard, even bears and coyotes. Then there was that special rooster who lived up in the tree during the winter. She cherished her pets, especially Bridget, Sheba, Freddie and Lady.

She loved her daughter, Linda, her grandchildren, Heath, Leeann and Susie and her adopted children, Melody, Donna and Adam. Nieces, nephews and their children were always in her heart.

There will be a celebration of Flo’s life held at the Madison Church at 53 Conway Road (Route 113) in Madison at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 19. There will be no calling hours. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to: The Madison Church Memorial Fund in memory of Flo, P.O. Box 119, Madison, NH, 03849.

CONWAY KIDS MAKE A DIFFERENCE

The cupboards in local food banks gratefully received a needed replenishing as the holiday season approached Wednesday. Several food drives culminated into piles of food and hundreds of frozen turkeys. Conway Elementary school’s annual food drive helped to fill the shelves of the Brown Church’s food bank (top left, bottom left and right) and students from Cornerstone Kids preschool, Lilliputian Montessori School (center, 2nd bottom left), North Conway Daycare (top right, 2nd bottom right) and other local schools brought their donations to the Mount Washington Radio/ Vaughan Community Service annual radio food drive at the First Church of Christ in North Conway which collected over 300 frozen turkeys and thousands of food items and is shared between 7 area food banks.

DR. BRIAN IRWIN

What is a Stent?

Many of you have heard of a stent. Most commonly, the reference is related to a patient’s heart and a diseased heart vessel. Perhaps you’ve heard of a patient who “had a stent put in their heart.

While this is a common term, frequently patients, even those who have one, do not know exactly what a stent is.

A stent is a tubular medical device. It’s a hollow sheath that is inserted into a bodily structure. The purpose of a stent is to keep a hollow organ or hollow part of an organ open. So why would a structure need to be kept open?

If a disease process leads to closure or blockage of a hollow area of anatomy, the contents that flow through that hollow tubular area, Dr. Brian Irwin also known as its lumen, become occluded and cannot pass, leading to medical complications. There are a number of common locations stents are placed: • Coronary arteries. Accumulation of cholesterol plaque and sugar (in diabetics) in the arteries of the heart can block blood flow. In the event the blockage becomes total, which commonly occurs when a tight artery’s plaque breaks and is plugged by platelets, the heart muscle is robbed oxygen and a heart attack can ensue. Cardiologists can break up these blockages and deploy a tubular stent to keep that area open to blood flow.

•Ureters. Kidney stones can potentially block the ureters, which are the tubes that drain urine from the kidneys to the bladder. If these become blocked, pressure can build up behind the blockage and damage the kidneys. Stents are occasionally placed to keep the ureters open. Ureters that are impinged by tumors can sometimes also be treated with stents. see IRWIN page 20

Keep your smile through the holiday season Well it is that time of year again with all the wonderful food, cheer, and all the candy we can possibly eat. I just love this time of year and all the wonderful tasty things to eat and indulge in…all of this though, can have a detrimental effect on our teeth! It’s not so much what we put on our teeth but how long we leave these wonderful tasting products there to do the damage to our enamel and gum tissues cascading into a problem of gum disease and tooth decay.

The food that we eat, sweet and sticky food, allows the bacteria in the mouth to produce acids that will attack the tooth enamel (the outer surface of the tooth). Sugars react with bacteria to produce acid.

The acid from the bacteria can decay your teeth. It is not just candy and ice cream; it’s all carbohydrate foods. As the foods are digested and broken down in the mouth, they turn into simple sugars such as glucose and fructose that are called fermentable carbohydrates. These include the obvious sugary foods such as cookies, cakes, soft drinks, candy, pretzels, crackers, bananas, chips, and breakfast cereals. The sugars in these foods combine with the bacteria nor-

mally in the mouth to form acid. These acids cause the mineral crystals inside the teeth to begin to dissolve.

The dental caries lesions (cavities) form when these acids start to dissolve a tooth’s outer layer of enamel. A cavity forms when the tooth decay breaks through the enamel to the underlying layers of the tooth.

In this wonderful holiday season of such goodies we eat while spending time with family, we need to remember to brush and floss between meals and snacks. Every time you eat, the bacteria in your mouth produce acid. The more times you eat with out brushing the food off your teeth, the more you create a breeding ground for decay to happen. With this said, enjoy, have a wonderful holiday season and remember regular visits to your dentist or dental hygenist can help make your teeth sparkle again!

Cholesterol and Kids

New guidelines, written by a panel sponsored by the U.S. National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute and endorsed by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), recommend all U.S. children between the ages of 9 and 11 be screened for high cholesterol.

Like me, you’re probably sitting there wondering why we need to test kids for high cholesterol. Isn’t that a middle age and older thing?

Apparently high cholesterol has its roots long before you learn to drive through and grab a greasy burger on the way to work. Dr. Stephen Daniels, chairman of the panel that helped established the new guidelines says, "The more we learn about heart disease and stroke in adults, the more we know that the process begins in childhood and progresses over time."

The measurements involved in a cholesterol count are the total level, LDL (bad cholesterol), HDL (good cholesterol) and triglycerides. In 2010 the Center for Disease Control and Prevention reported that about 20 percent of U.S. kids and teens had too much bad cholesterol, not enough good cholesterol and high triglycerides.

Not only are these young people in poor health right now, but they’re also being set up for a future in which heart disease could play a devastating role.

So what’s a parent to do?

Although the statistics are scary, the actions we can take to head off a heart wrenching future for our kids aren’t all that hard.

Start your child on a diet low in saturated fats at age 1. Do not go “fat free”. It’s unnecessary and could be dangerous. Two percent milk and soy milk provide plenty of nutrients your child would get from whole milk without all the fat. As always, speak to your child’s health care provider before making substantial diet changes.

Every child is different.

Develop your child’s tastes for the natural flavor of foods. Use fruit spreads and light sauces to replace saturated fat laden sauces and spreads. Steam veggies. Keep red meats to a minimum and choose lean cuts of other meats.

Remember, kids who aren’t used to foods laden with fat are less likely to find those types of foods appealing as they grow.

Make healthy choices for meals.

Go to www.choosemyplate.gov for simple instructions on how to put together healthy meals for you and the kids in your life. The food plate diagram on this website is the simplest way to get a fix on portions and balancing food groups.

Last, but certainly not least, is move. Keep kids active with inexpensive options like easy hikes, backyard obstacle courses, Frisbee, swimming, kayaking

BRIDGTON — The Bridgton Hospital Diabetes Clinic will sponsor its three-part diabetes education program on Nov. 29 and 30, and Dec. 6, from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. The first session only is from 8:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m.

The sessions will be held in the Bridgton Hospital Cafeteria Conference Room.

The series requires physician referral and early registration is suggested due to its popularity (class size is limited to assure personal attention). Topics covered include: the importance of exercise and physical activity, healthy meal plans and diabetes, hypoglycemia signs and symptoms, medications to control diabetes, complications

and diabetes, diabetes and eye care, and diabetes and proper foot care. Medicaid and most insurance plans cover the course registration fee.

Participants are encouraged to bring a relative or a friend with them. For more information about the program or to register Elaine Drew call 207-647-6064.

and canoeing.

When it finally snows, get out Suze Hargraves there with them and create your own snow town including snow families, forts and even try your hand at building streets and bridges in the deep snow! Have a neighborhood contest to see who can have the best snow town in their yard by the end of the winter! Traditional winter activity options include skating, sledding, tubing, boarding and skiing. Of course, don’t forget to keep an eye on those active youngsters!

Next time your child is getting a check-up or just being seen for an old fashioned case of the sniffles, mention these new cholesterol guidelines for youth to your practitioner. Ask about testing and discuss options available to help you minimize your child’s risk factors for heart disease.

Every child deserves a good start on life. By monitoring cholesterol early, you can lower your kid’s risk of heart disease and raise their odds of living a long, strong and healthy life.

The Great American Smokeout is today

BEDFORD — The American Cancer Society marks the 36th Great American Smokeout today by encouraging smokers to use the date to make a plan to quit.

According to an Cancer Society report], smokers who quit can expect to live up to 10 years longer than those who continue to smoke. Smokers who quit, regardless of age, live longer than people who continue to smoke.

Quitting is hard, but smokers can increase their chances of success with help. The American Cancer Society has many tools and tips to help smokers beat the urge to smoke when the cravings hit at www. cancer.org/Smokeout.

Annual Gasping Gobbler 5k walk/run Saturday Don’t forget the sixth annual Gasping Gobbler 5 K walk/run that take place on Nov. 19 starting at 10 am. It’s a chance to win the gobbler for Thanks giving. For more information you can call Stan Tupaj at (207) 925-1500.

Also on Saturday, Nov. 19, the Lovell United Church of Christ is holding their Snowflake Fair starting at 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Lots of goodies for Christmas so you can shop then have lunch, too. This fair gives everyone the opportunity to buy the important holiday decorations like fresh balsam wreaths, berry bowls and fir pillows. There will also be baked goods, holiday gifts, a Christmas boutique and treasures for any taste. There also will be a raffle of a twin size Afghan made of donated granny squares and put together by Lois Brown. There will also be a raffle of a Thanksgiving Dinner basket with all the fixings. The Girls Scouts will be in charge of a luncheon.

During the holiday season those who are more fortunate have contributed to the Community Giving Tree.

These trees are distributed throughout the SAD 72 district to help those who face a bleak Christmas. The mission statement of these individuals and churches is to present an opportunity for those who are willing to share during this festive season. In doing so they feel strongly that God will encourage many to give to others in his name when donating to the Giving Tree and working toward the purpose of the tree. The Giving Trees are located in Lovell at the Charlotte Hobbs Memorial Library, the Center Lovell Market and Rosies. On each tree is a ticket with a requested gift. As a donor you take the ticket, buy the gift, wrap it and return it to the tree where you got the ticket. As a donor you aren’t limited to one if you are in a generous mood. The children who receive these gifts most likely wouldn’t have any Christmas if it wasn’t for the Giving Tree. All wrapped gifts with ticket will be picked out by Dec. 4 so they can be sorted and distributed by Dec. 8 and 9.

Don’t forget that the Lovell Invasive Plant Prevention committees will be holding a Public Information Meeting on Thursday, Nov. 17, from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Charlotte Hobbs Memorial Library. Community members realize that Lovell’s greatest asset is Kezar Lake and

Paul and Adam Armington were the judges pick for first place at the the Chili Challenge Lovell’s fourth Annual Battle of the Bowl and Maureen Reilly and Jim Harris, of the Stow Corner Store, were the people's choice winners. (ETHEL HURST PHOTO)

the members of these committees help guard the lake throughout the years. With the invasions of so many aquatic invasive plants the only way to keep the lake safe is being vigilant. There are 34 bodies of water in Maine infested with milfoil and our committee is vigilant with constant examination and testing. One of the most active programs is the examination of boats entering the lakes waters for any invasive aquatic plants.

Over 205 hours were accumulated by volunteers from Memorial Day until Labor Day. The Lovell Committees are so committed to the program of protecting our lake that it’s in the interest of the public to attend the meeting to see if there is anything you can do to help. Volunteers are always needed for a project of this magnitude.

So far due to the diligent of the committee Lake Kezar is clean but only continuing to monitor the lake will it continue to serve the community with it’s pristine waters.

After the meeting there will be refreshments and those attending can ask question to be better informed.

Jackson Town Column

The Chili Challenge Lovell’s fourth Annual Battle of the Bowls took place at the Center Lovell Fire House from noon until 2 p.m. There were fewer contestants this year but it still was a great events. There were some competitors who tried to bribe the judges but winking didn’t make it. The five judges had a hard row to go because this year the competitors heated the chili up a bit from previous years. This is a fun event that contributes to the bank account of Lovell Friends Helping Friends. Again the people and judges came to the almost same opinion as to the winners. The judges first place winner was Paul and Adam Armington with new comers, the Stow Corner Store, coming in second. The people’s choice for first place was Maureen Reilly and Jim Harris, of the Stow Corner Store. The award for the most attractive table was Mary Heroux. As a judge, I have to admit it’s really hard to judge the differences but I’m signing up for next year.

After much deliberation and scrutiny of all the applications the Lovell Recreation Department has chosen James (Jay) Lyons to take over the position of the new Recreation director beginning early in December. Jay is presently living in Salem Massachusetts where he is employed by the YMCA. In his position with the YMCA he has been working with programs that will give priority to the emotional, physical health and safety of school age youth. He is an avid sports fan, especially basketball, and enjoys the outdoors. His wife is presently Director of Camp Susan Curtis which is a plus for the family moving to the Lovell area.

There are two events in December that you should mark your calendars now. On Friday, Dec. 2, at 7 p.m. the annual Tree Lighting with special guest Santa Claus will take place at the Charlotte Hobbs Memorial Library.

This is a community events heralding in the holidays.

On Saturday, Dec. 3, the Lovell Fire Department will be putting on a benefit supper at the Center Lovell Fire Barn from 4 to 7 p.m. for Paul McLaughlin who will be starting treatment next week. The menu will consist of spaghetti with meat or meatless sauce, salad, rolls, dessert and drinks. There will be a 50/50 and a donation boots. Paul and his wife Christine have seven children and live in Lovell.

by Scott Adams

By Holiday Mathis so creative now that you’ll be turned off by any environment that seems restrictive or limiting. Your intellect will benefit from the places and people who draw you out mentally.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

You accept responsibility, but not pressure. The one who is pushy will get on your last nerve if you let her. Draw firm boundaries, and defend them in a courteous way.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

Your sign is noted for having unusual longevity, be it in love, work or simply existence. This is partly because you are magnetized toward making healthy, sustainable choices like the ones you make today.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Change isn’t always easy, but sometimes it is. And today, you’ll absolutely thrive on it, making adjustments with grace. There’s no room for worry or doubt in your active mind.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll be an advocate for someone who does not speak the language you are so fluent in. This could be an actual language or a style of communication that is common to a particular group of people to which you belong.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 17).

The circumstances you encounter over the next seven weeks will boost your emotional life, and you’ll benefit from increased physical health and energy.

Celebratory events decorate 2012, and the best of these will be impromptu happenings. You’ll heed financial wisdom and enjoy greater ease through December. Pisces and Leo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 4, 14, 38 and 18.

Get Fuzzy

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You will send a silent blessing on the wind. The person you send it to will be favorably changed by this intention, though he or she will probably never know it came from you -- or know about it at all, for that matter.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your imagination has healing power. Here’s a way to bring it out: Instead of dreaming of the future, dream of an alternate past, one in which you got what you needed and felt overjoyed about it.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Put some fun on the day’s agenda. If there’s nothing exciting about your plans for the day, you won’t be inspired to complete even the easiest task on your list.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). This is the kind of day you want to paint with bold strokes. Leave the detail work for later or for someone else. If you don’t finish a project quickly, it won’t get done.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). People in business may be guarded when they first meet you. It’s nothing personal.

They are mentally qualifying your potential as a customer. Once they get past that, they’ll be charmed by you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll wake up with a fair idea of how things are likely to progress, and that idea will be wrong. You love a good surprise now and then. Today’s twist in the plot will bring a thrill.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ve been putting so much of you into your work that it may feel like you don’t know who you are outside of that context. That’s why it’s so important for you to relax and just be yourself tonight.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’re

Page 24 — THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Thursday, November 17, 2011

by Abigail Van Buren

NOT EVERY WOMAN IS WIRED TO BE A MOM, READERS AGREE

DEAR ABBY: It saddened me to read the letter from “Lacks the Mothering Gene” (Sept. 15). Seven months pregnant, she feels nothing for her baby, and her husband is furious with her for feeling as she does.

You told her that she should discuss this with her obstetrician, and you were sure that once the baby arrived she would fall in love with her baby. Not always, Abby. There are, in fact, many situations where mothers DO NOT fall in love with their babies.

I have led pregnancy and postpartum support groups for 20 years, and I would have advised “Lacks” to see someone who is professionally trained in working with women who are psychologically distressed during pregnancy. Sometimes there are multiple, complex reasons why women feel negatively toward their babies, and she needs a place where she can talk about such matters.

I admire her, because in spite of her lack of feelings at this time, she’s still determined to be an excellent mother. I have every confidence that with the proper support, she can be.

-- WILLIAM S. MEYER, ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR, DUKE UNIVERSITY DEAR MR. MEYER: Thank you for lending your expertise and sharing your sound advice. Responses to that letter included testimonies from women wanting “Lacks” to know she was not alone. My newspaper readers comment: DEAR ABBY: My mother found herself pregnant shortly after she and my father were married. She was not happy about it, and it caused a lot of conflict. She made my life unbearable. I think “Lacks” should rethink her options.

It took years of therapy for me to realize I was not to blame for my parents’ fights or for everything that was wrong.

Mother was a classic narcissist, and her toxic relationship with me didn’t end until after her death.

Some women should not be mothers. If they can’t be, they should place the child for adoption. That way, the child will

have a chance to grow and thrive in a loving environment.

-- R.P. IN CARMICHAEL, CALIF. DEAR ABBY: I struggled through my son’s infant-throughpreschool years and forced myself to give up my career to be a stay-at-home mom because I’d been told it was best for him.

It was agonizing for me. I wondered if I was defective.

However, now that my son is school-age, I have discovered I am actually a great mom and love spending time with him. What I lacked as a “baby mom,” I have more than made up for as a “kid mom.” As such, I have returned to the workforce and have no guilt over dropping off my second child -- a toddler -- at day care.

“Lacks” will find her niche eventually, but she shouldn’t beat herself up while she’s looking. -- REBECCA IN FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. DEAR ABBY: I am a birth doula who assists couples through pregnancies and birth. I don’t find every client with a big belly on a pink cloud. I highly recommend a certified birth doula to help through the hard times. They can be found at www.DONA.org, the website for the international doula organization. Several doulas can be interviewed in order to find a good fit and one who understands the situation. -- BIRTH DOULA IN OREGON DEAR ABBY: I think what “Lacks” is feeling is common.

Yet we are never supposed to talk about it. A woman who feels less than jubilant about the responsibilities of motherhood is viewed as unwomanly and selfish. Some women are just not fulfilled being mothers, and there’s nothing wrong with that.

I resented motherhood until I began to focus on my children as the amazing people they are. Reluctant moms should get curious about their children, or get involved with a good neighborhood baby group or a parent coach. It helps to have someone to talk to when things get rough. -- NEW MOM IN WASHINGTON

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.
