or stress is the cause for any kind .

of acting-out behavior.

“It’s kind of hard to expect a

kid to go to school when mom
‘and dad are fighting all night, or
mom is drinking all the time.

“It’s pretty hard for a kid to go
to school and learn and not act
out,”’ said Pouliot.

Last month approximately 200
teens used the Griffin Teen Cen-
‘tre. Most are 13 to years of
age.

Much good comes from the
place,

In the summer there are orga-
nized activities — camping, paint-
ball war games and such.

Since October, with the support
of a VanCity grant, there is a peer

tutoring program.

Said Pouliot,“‘We’re trying to
focus on those Grade 8s who are
having some difficulty adjusting to
the academic school system and
give them support through the wo
tutors we have.”’

Two Grade 12 honor roll stu-
dents are paid to tutor teens
needing help with math, English
and French.

Said Pouliot, “What you have
to realize is that some kids are
going to connect well with the
school system and some kids are
going to connect well with a recre-
ational system.

“There are kids who are not
going to go for school or sports
and you have to provide different
outlets for those kids to connect
with,’’ he said.
