Most of my life the words "Play like a girl" were used as an insult and to demean females. The Matilda's have banished that patriarchal concept & last night we watched with joy and pride as they played like the fierce athletes they are. Go the Tilly's 👊⚽️
Love stories about love!! So many gorgeous happy faces beaming out at us 🥰
This is nuts! What sort of workplace would allow this type of behaviour towards their employees? I don't have answers just horror at what I read.
Bone brush is not soup! Soup is delicious and filling and teaming with veggies, grains, legumes, meats, pasta etc.
These articles are great - keep them coming!
Totally agree - it's an awful label to diagnose our brilliant kids with. Google the "ADHD Strengths Iceberg" for a great printable flyer that lists all the amazing abilities our kids have. Ours is on the fridge and Miss 9 loves showing it off to people.
Look forward to seeing the new one if it's a total new format! I spent xmas in bed with covid and watched 2 seasons of the US FBoy Island and it is amazing! Can't wait to see the Australian version soon :)
Sounds like a wild ride and I'm glad Alice lived to tell her tale as so many don't. Hope it comes out as an e-book too.
While it's great to see and hear so many stories from women with adult diagnoses, and I sincerely hope we saw more studies into female ADHD, I've been left feeling really flat and sad after reading this essay.
Please don't spray any perfumed scents on a long haul flight. Your idea of a heavenly scent might be your neighbours idea of eau de barf.
Another horrific story of our "world best" health system failing miserably. After todays announcement about WA delaying re-opening their borders I'm kind of inclined to think, we can't really blame them!
@mrsp and we can't leave the house to get RATS even if they were available to buy in Sydney. Also tried to book our 8yo in for the first shot today ... our GP said to try calling back in Feb for an appointment.
I'm too sick and exhausted with the 'mild' covid case I've got to be angry. No energy, no sense of smell or taste, no voice, awful headache and cough, sore chest from coughing and a heavy cold. I'm on day 7 and still feel awful. I just want to punch the politicians in the head every time they say most people only get mild symptoms... just because we're not ending up in hospital doesn't mean we're not really unwell.
The amount of gambling ads played at all times of the day or night is simply appalling and irresponsible. I loathe them, have zero interest in them and agree it's grooming young minds into normalising it. No wonder streaming services are preferred by many so we can avoid the annoying ads.
Very well said Gemma. It does feel like many progressive steps could be removed just that little bit more easily now. America, Poland and other conservative countries are all seeing precious won rights reversed and I fear without a loud left or middle moderates that we could slip the same way.
I'm sorry ... that's a really shitty thing to have happen and I'm pretty sure illegal. Wasn't gazumping outlawed decades ago? Hopefully there is somewhere you can report them? Good luck with the future hunt ... you've got this!
@georgiew I too have a friend who's private school/university educated and has been sucked into the conspiracy vortex. Sadly I can't reason with her and as I enter the 5th week of home schooling I don't have the emotional energy to keep comms channels open.
This is truly awful to see a young healthy woman die from the virus. I'm curious though how the boyfriend and brother got to see her in hospital if they had also tested positive? I thought if you were in isolation you wouldn't be allowed to travel to a hospital {car, train, bus, uber?} to say goodbye? With so much misinformation floating around, the facts in articles need to be robust and not have holes in them.
I've got an 8yo and have never been asked when we're having another one. It's never been brought up by anyone and I've never been judged by anyone. I think this might be another myth perpetuated by the media!
