Extractions: HELPING PARENTS COPE WITH A HIGH-RISK BIRTH: TERROR, GRIEF, IMPOTENCE, AND ANGER by Michael T. Hynan, Ph.D. University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee I wish to thank you, Becky, for you kind introduction. I also wish to thank the program committee for inviting me. I am honored and touched to be speaking at the last official Parent Care Conference. Parent Care really gave me an outlet for what I felt I had to say and write about having a premature baby. If it were not for Parent Care, I suspect that I never would have finished writing my book. Parent Care has always been very good to me, and I will be forever grateful. Ever since my son was born and survived I have felt that I have owed a debt- - to doctors, nurses, friends, my family, other parents, and to God. I realized that my payment would come from putting my Psychological knowledge to use to support other parents and help them adjust emotionally to the awful reality of having a high- risk baby. I also hope that I can help perinatal professionals better understand the emotional turmoil felt by high- risk parents, so you can help us as families to get home in the best possible shape. So we can find meaning in our lives that have changed in the worst possible way. That's why I came here. This is a debt I want to be paying my whole life, and its the only debt I have where I receive more than I can give. Today I will talk about each of the emotions of terror, grief, impotence, and anger as they occur in high- risk parents. You will learn about my family and how we experienced these unfortunate feelings during my son's birth. And you will also hear the stories of many high- risk parents, who have shared their emotional struggles with me. I hope to be able to put some substance and feelings into abstract works like grief and impotence, to express the feelings that many times we high- risk parents hold back- - because we are afraid people and especially the medical staff will think we are crazy and that we can't handle our crises.

Extractions: e-mail this article Haven't We Met? WARNING: The following review contains spoilers, though none that you won't anticipate within fifteen minutes of watching the film. O n its surface, Meet the Parents seems to be your basic romantic comedy, concerning stock misadventures along the road to marriage. Without fail, the central couple must overcome some enormous hurdle that threatens to doom their happily-ever-after before it even begins. Since our Greg is Ben Stiller, we can rest assured that what follows will include many goofy faux pas, half-baked schemes, and cringe-inducing moments. And since Meet the Parents is a marriage comedy, we can also be reasonably certain that regardless of any and all disasters, it will end as most of them do: happily. Thank goodness, then, that screenwriters Greg Gilenna and Mary Ruth Clarke, along with director Jay Roach ( Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me ), don't waste our time trying to convince us that the plot is anything fresh. They wisely let that storyline develop as we know it will. Except for one thing: the primary couple is DeNiro and Stiller.
