This article applies the social model of disability (Oliver 1996) and the theory of social role valorisation (Wolfensberger 1998a) to the life experiences as told in the words of a man who experienced being institutionalised at 17 years of age. A focussed conversation (Stanfield 2000) was used to support the man to retell some of the challenges, achievements and satisfactions he wished to share. This story outlines how he utilised his experiences to transform his life and advocate for people with learning disabilities to be treated fairly. Today he is a member on a number of Boards, striving to ensure that people with learning disabilities receive the service and support they desire.

SummaryData from New South Wales are analysed to show how the interval between confinements depends on the parity of the mother. When an average interval is calculated it is a weighted average for mothers of varying parity. The weights depend in part on the parity progression ratios and as changes in the parity progression ratios alter the composition of the population by parity, this affects the weightings used and thus affects the average interval obtained.For any interval, age of mother can be calculated at the birth of either child. When age of mother is calculated at the birth of the second child, it is found that the interval is shorter for younger mothers than older mothers. However, when age of mother is calculated at the birth of the first child, there is no significant variation in the interval with age of mother.
