When it comes to parenting your child, there is always one good cop and one bad cop. There is no reason for it, apart from the fact that there has to be at least one responsible person in the house. Unfortunately I’m the bad cop. I’m the one who calls bedtime, breaks up fun because it’s getting too rough and takes on a no-nonsense approach to mess, noise and manners. Being the bad cop has...

We have a month of our new life under our belt now, and each day both Joan and I are feeling more ‘comfortable’ with school. She wakes up asking to go right away and she tells me to leave once we have her at her seat (as I’m leaning in for one last kiss, my face meets her elbow.) She talks about school when we aren’t there, and her teacher tells me each day she is getting more and more...

We recently went on a short family trip abroad. As we have yet to cash in the prize bonds my mother gave us on our wedding day and spring for a private plane, we resigned ourselves to two hours on a budget airline - an activity every mother-of-four relishes, I'm sure. While the rest of my gang have had their airborne rite of passage, my youngest had yet to experience the 'joys' of air...

I’m very lucky to have what they call ‘A Gentleman’s Family’. I’d never heard the term until I had my second child, which gave us one of each child – a boy and a girl. Apparently this type of ‘traditional’ family is known as ‘a gentleman’s family’ and when my son was born, there were lots of congratulations and references to this. I was clueless at the time what it meant. But...

Being ‘just a mum’ is one of the best jobs in the world. I did this job for many years, so I understand exactly what this 24-hour day role includes; however, as I got older and returned to full time education I also realised that there was so much more to me than just my role as ‘Mum’. I discovered that I had lost my identity along the way and allowed myself to become just ‘Mum’. It...

I knew it was only a matter of time before this little predicament would raise its ugly head. The ‘Colour inside the lines’ argument has well and truly hit home. It kicked off in my kitchen last week in the middle of my junior infant’s homework when she was getting particularly frustrated about staying inside the lines. When my daughter put on that uniform, I knew I was sending her into...

In my previous life, long before I became a mum, I used to look forward to my weekends all week; to lazy lie-ins, meeting friends in town for lunch, pottering around the shops and buying something new to wear out that night. Years of looking forward to weekends means my brain still automatically does so, but it hasn’t copped on to the fact that these days, the weekends are no longer a break...

The great thing about fatherhood, wrote Michael Chabon (and as a Pulitzer Prize winner, I expect he knows what he's talking about), is that the bar is set so hilariously low and in my experience, it's (mostly) true. Dads get extra credit and the 'what a good father!' comments simply for being seen with kids who are somewhat healthy and happy, even if you're dragging them around...

While listening to the radio at work the other day I heard a woman called Bea Marshall promoting her new parenting style: YES Parenting. It’s about saying yes to your children so they’ll become independent decision makers, because you know, children have never grown up to become independent decision makers before, ever. This will probably change the world. Yes, I rolled my eyes throughout as...
