Dear All,

We at Trillium Hollow in Portland are trying to a bunch of community =
building things to increase camaraderie and good communication skills.  =
MEANWHILE, what to do when people have loud angry yelling name calling =
swearing arguments in front of all, and ignore requests to take it =
inside?  We have been advised not to sweep it under the rug.  I agree, =
but how to approach these people?  Please don't say sharing circles, =
these haven't been particularly helpful in the past - and those involved =
don't always show up.

This is of particular concern to parents of young children who point out =
quite rightly that it is negative modeling for their children, and =
children can't get away with this kind of behavior.

Suggestions???

Thanks,

Vicky Leary
