This paper examines infant-mother attachment and its alleged significant for personality and social development. There is now a great deal of evidence that that significance given to this attachment is not warranted. Infants normally develop attachments to more than one person. They
are active participants in their interactions with other persons. The infant's and young child's interpersonal world is both broader and more complex than is usually acknowledged. The ideology of motherhood persists to the detriment of fathering, shared parenting in family and cooperative
situations, and caretaking in child-care facilities

An analysis of drink‐driving research methods and findings with reference to traffic accidents is presented. This analysis is used to challenge some of the conclusions about drinking and driving that have gained wide currency in Australia and New Zealand. The growing acceptance of Scandinavian‐type laws is critically evaluated. The demand to 'criminalize' drink‐driving offences is rejected. The reduction of deat and damage from traffic accidents is presented as the real problem, not the drinking and driving of the population at large.
