For much of her life, journalist Kumi Taguchi refused to engage with the family history that had been passed on to her.

But, eventually, she says, she had no choice but to better understand it. That process not only enriched her life but helped her make sense of her place in the world. 

How has your family history been passed on to you and how has it shaped the way you connect with the world?

Are you one of the lucky few who can still go into a physical building to do your banking?

From self check outs at supermarkets and QR codes…. to prescriptions emailed to your smartphone and trying to fix a problem with Centrelink or the Tax Office. More and more, our lives are being moved online.

For some of us it's no big deal... but there are fears a widening digital divide is leaving some older Australians behind.

"Are you worried they're getting worse?"From September 30, parents of children in NSW public hospitals will be asked that question, to ensure concerns about their child's health are recognised and acted upon.

Chin hairs, smiling and making others happy. These are just some of the things the worldwide We Do Not Care Club have struck off their list.
