A recent study compiled by three leading British universities, has suggested that the presence of a woman’s partner during childbirth may be, at best, of very little comfort and, at worst, actually increase pain levels. Reassuring on so many levels. No, really! Finally, something has been produced that accurately describes my experience of labour. My partner is many things. He is warm-hearted...

So yesterday I learned that my 14-year-old son is no longer a single man. He’s a grown-up in a committed relationship. Apparently. I say ‘apparently’ because I’m finding all this out second-hand. The day my son comes home and confides in me first will be the same day my husband discovers where the hoover is kept. No, I got this rather earth-shattering piece of news from my twelve-year-old...

For anyone who was offended by the internet’s latest hilarious offering, I urge you lighten up and acknowledge that there’s more than an element of truth in it. I’m talking of course about one father’s tongue-in-cheek description of his children’s buggy, which he posted on Ebay in a bid to rid himself of the snot-green monstrosity. And really, who could blame him? Now that Joel...

In recent times, we've seen more and more stories about children – usually young girls - writing letters to their father’s bosses, begging them to let Daddy off early so that he can spend time at home with them. There was the girl who wrote this sweet note to Google or m ore recently, the six-year-old girl who wrote to Southern Rail asking them to get her Daddy home on time to tuck her in...

We all have things that made our heart pound, our palms sweat and our knees weaken. For my 3-year-old son, it’s the appearance of a comb and the words ‘It will just take two minutes’. For me? Well, it used be the announcement that my regular hairdresser was on holidays and I’d be put in the not-so-capable hands of Jackie, the trainee, but now it’s the appearance of the letter that...

So, yesterday saw the latest development in playground politics. In case this story passed you by, let me quickly fill you in so we’re both on the same page. The parents of a five-year-old boy were issued with an invoice for the tidy sum of £15.95 because their son was a no-show at the latest birthday bash. (Honestly, the calendar of a high-profile socialite would pale in comparison to that of...

The grass is not always greener on the other side. If you know the joy of having a large family - and by large, I mean in quantity not weight - you may often wonder what it’s like on the other side; the side where you only have one child to care for. And while I certainly won't dispute that there are a number of positives (most notably when it comes to how much of your income goes on...

Whether catching up on news, replying to an email or mindlessly scrolling though our many social media accounts, we are all guilty of being on our phones when we probably shouldn’t be. And yes, I am guilty of it too. Most definitely. However, in my defence, I really do try to put the phone away, especially when I am watching my little girl playing sports or learning something new. This is mainly...

So it looks like the discussion surrounding body image is never going to go away, especially not when schools are allowing their students' ID photos to be photoshopped without their express permission. That’s right; a school in the US has come under fire after a student realised her photo had been digitally altered, so that her face appeared slimmed down, her eyebrows darkened and her lips...
