Whether your favourite holiday destination is the surf, the snow or the city, adding kids to the mix adds an obvious extra element that can sometimes turn what SHOULD be a relaxing time, into a nightmare that you can’t wake up from. A cute one though. A cute one in a Frozen dress who won’t eat her vegetables or sleep in her own bed.

Sigh…. This is Mother’s Anonymous Podcast: we are here for you!

They say that your school years are the best years of your life... but seriously, what do ‘they’ know. So, with that in mind and now that we are (finally) through with those years ourselves, how do we pick what’s best for our kids?

State or private? Secular or non-secular? Chick or fish? In this episode, we discuss paradigm, praxis and pedagogy.

This is Mothers Anonymous Podcast: The only show where a former teacher confesses that she doesn't know anything about the education system!

In this episode, we talk about how to raise your children to be feminists… Feminism doesn’t mean throwing away all of your daughter’s princess toys or dressing your boys in pink, it means encouraging your children to see boys and girls as not exactly the same, but equal

SEX! That got your attention!!

This week’s episode talks candidly about post-partum sex - and if that sentence doesn’t get your juices flowing I don’t know what will!

We have created a Mumlow´s hierarchy with all the situations that make us feel guilty. Since the Physiological guilt that we always feel when the child is crying but you need to go to the toilet until the guilt when you just give time to get a pedicure or do something for yourself...  

Guilt is constant background noise but is also a useful emotion for a soul.

Why do we stay in relationships that are bad for us? With people who make us question our worth? With people we are no longer in love with?

The age old excuse is always ‘for the sake of the children’. Everyone has their reasons for this that sit outside ‘the sake of children’, but why do we revert to this excuse when justifying our reasons to stay?

Is the fear of the unknown better or worse than the devil you know? (Pun possibly intended.)

We don’t want a lot for Christmas,

There is just one thing we need.

We don’t care about the presents

Underneath the Christmas tree.

I just want this for my own,

More than you will ever know.

Make my wish come true

All we want for Christmas is….

Guilt free holiday time, my own bed, solitude and a small cash donation to go towards the small fortune I just spent on Baby’s first Christmas Donna/Blitzen Making Memories pack.

Some milestones are way cuter than others: smiling, first words and steps, the first rock hard towel you pull from underneath your teenage son’s bed. Has anyone realised how so many of these baby oriented milestones end up with everything covered in poo? Has anyone else realised the similarities between toilet training a baby and toilet training a puppy? Do you think it’s socially acceptable to implement any of these puppy training strategies to a toilet training child? Asking for a friend…

You know what you think is going to be funny? Mooing while you breastfeed or pump. In the age of working women, breastfeeding, or more importantly NOT breastfeeding is fast becoming a contentious issue. Is it ok not to like breastfeeding? Is it ok to decide not to breastfeed at all? Whilst they certainly do say ‘breast is best’, does this take into consideration the mother and her general mental health state?
