The new concept in child care
was launched at the Medical
School in 1964 with a federally-
funded pilot program for train
ing mentally retarded pre
school younsters whose physical
problems were treated first.
Results were so .significant that
the United States Public Health
Service awarded the State Board
of Higher Education $3,706,000
to erect the Portland structure
and a satellite Clinical Services
Center on the University of Ore
gon campus in Eugene where
primary emphasis is on spe
cial education for the retarded.
Backed up by $1,365,000 from
the 1967 Oregon legislature,
construction began in 1968.
Grants from the U.S. Depart
ment of Health, Education and
Welfare Health Services and
Mental Health Administration
have supplemented the pro
fessional training programs
since 1967, with a 1970-71 grant
of $622,379 providing staff sala
ries and fellowship and trainee
stipends for 22 post-graduate
students.
These years provide oppor
tunity for companionship, for
shared activities.
Although
parents’ responsibilities have
been accepted cheerfully
through the years, many parents
express relief and a feeling of
light heartedness when the child
ren are on their own. The couple
has many of the advantages of
the early years of marriage with
the added bonus of an adjust
ment pattern, shared memories
and generally a better financial
picture.

Some women find personal
satisfaction in volunteer work.
Others devote themselves to
their families, or the pursuit of
personal interests.
For the vast majority of in
dividuals and couples, says Mrs.
Frasier, years after the child
ren are grown are “the frosting
on the cake” as far as marriage
is concerned.

they ask.
Nearly half the women at this
stage move into the labor mar
ket. For families with child
ren in school or with aged
parents, this may be a period
of heavy financial responsibi
lities and an added paycheck may
be a necessity. Others work
for personal satisfaction or to
fill time.

children have left the nest and
flown out into the world. Another
term used for this period of
life is the launching years.
However, many women ques
tion the designation of this pe
riod as the “empty nest” stage
since some of their family re
sponsibilities continue, notes
Mrs. Frasier.
Although the children may
have flown or been launched,
they frequently come back to
port,
Daughters also bring
their children and husbands.
Many mothers assume a major
role in the care of grandchild
ren. And big family dinners
are not a thing of the past for
middle aged Oregon women.
During the middle years chil
dren may be in college but home
for vacations, or they maybe in
college and live at home. With
the growth of community col
leges, more young people con
tinue at home for an extra two
years while attending college.
Other young people may work
and stay at home.
The high school dropout, the
unemployed youth may be a part
of the family picture.
The middle years, for many
couples, is a time of increased
responsibility for their parents.
A time when middle-aged
“children” adopt almost the
same feeling of responsibility
for their parents as they for
merly felt for their children.
Divorce rates increase during
this period, too, says Mrs.
Frasier.
Many couples have
been unhappy, but stayed to-
gether until the children were
grown, terminate the marriage
at this time. Others may ex
perience unhappiness and dis
satisfaction at this stage of
life with their marriage and with
their own personal life. It is
a time of renewed seeking of
self-identity.
