that in choosing motherhood, women were sacrificing personhood. Therefore, the movement did not demand support of motherhood from society, and thus received none. Dr. Richardson emphasized that the best time to teach a child the Ukrainian language is during the first few years of his life. She also pointed out how important it is fpr a mother, home with her child, to have support groups in the community with whom she can identify and be able to discuss the important task of motherhood. Spirituality and its development was also touched upon by Dr. Richardson as an important factor in family bonding and growth. She said that Ukrainians as a group do not take the initiative to develop programs in conjunction with their parishes, which would meet the spiritual needs of marriages and family. Dr. Richardson stated that Ukrainians should draw from their multi-cultural communities “growth-promoting components, adapt these with our own communities and offer them to our families, children, singles and the elderly in a Ukrainian environment. This would lessen the intense conflict we sometimes experience in feeling a need to choose between the Ukrainian and American culture. We should not be afraid of change, but should welcome change as an opportunity to mold a new kind of life.” In conclusion, Dr. Richardson pointed out that although the present time offers unprecedented oppor tunities and great freedom of choice, we must “adapt and salvage the human elements we understand best and need most”. Within the confines and security of a family “man can accomplish his greatest tasks,” she stated. “Only with a strong, cohesive family unit, can we hope to salvage our Ukrainian identity. (D r.
