This response to my 10 questions about your feminist motherhood is from Mom, JD. It’s this lovely thoughtful reflection upon where she is at right now and where she came from, and what I really like is the way she has unpacked the question about ‘what makes her mothering feminist’. The choices you make versus [...]

Lauca, That you fell over so many times during your first time ice-skating is not surprising, that you stayed so good-humoured about it the entire time was kinda surprising. I am so proud of you for the persistence you showed. You fell over a lot. Your clothes were dripping wet by the end of it [...]

This post over at love isn’t enough: or raising a family in a color-struck world is fantastic.

There is a lot of theft that is pretty hard to empathise with, but the so-called theft of education for children? Not so hard to understand. In the most recent case, Tonya McDowell, a black mother who lived sometimes in a homeless shelter, sometimes on a friend’s couch, used her babysitter’s address, where she did [...]

As I am walking past Lauca’s bedroom I catch sight of her father and her curled into her little bed together, he reading the night’s bedtime story. I hear “… head lice are tiny parasitic insects that live in human hair near the scalp..” and I remember that Lauca’s favourite ‘storybook’ at the moment is [...]

I don’t want to be sucked in by this film, I Don’t Know How She Does It but I fear I will be, I am just that desperate to see some of my own experiences of motherhood (namely, all the juggling) reflected in the contemporary story of motherhood. However, I have to say, it takes [...]
