Maia Dunphy, TV presenter and the wife of comedian Johnny Vegas, recently voiced her frustration at the probing questions women are asked when they tie the knot, reach a certain age or appear to be in a settled, long-term relationship. “So when are you two going to have kids?” Even typing those words makes me cringe. It gives me flashbacks to a time when I felt I spent every social occasion...

I’ve spent a long time envisioning girlie days I’d have with my daughter once she hit her teens. Boy-free days where we’d shop, have lunch and catch up with each other. I say ‘catch up’ because I hear teens don’t spend much time at home and as my job necessitates a lot of travel, I presumed the days in question would need to be arranged via PA or something. But what do I know? I’ve...

My 12-year-old daughter has been making noises about needing a bra. She doesn’t need a bra. I told her that while I have no doubt she really wants one, there's a big difference between that and actually needing one. I don’t why I bothered with my speech about her wanting to grow up too fast, because if I’m honest, I knew I was going to get my daughter a bra the minute she requested one...

Concerned that the two children he shares with the glamour model will be subjected to ridicule as a result of their mum’s controversial conversation, the 41-year-old dad has banned the show from being watched, discussed or even...

No matter how unbelievably happy you are, o nce your news is out there, brace yourself because you have just become an open target for unwanted parenting advice and passing comments. Before the sentence is out of your mouth, you are likely to be on the receiving end of not-so-subtle comments about how all the fun things in...

A story came to the nation’s attention during the week which melted our hearts and restored our faith in humanity. Well, for most of us anyway. Other people appeared to be put out by the fact a stranger on a train complimented a young mum’s parenting skills and passed her a note saying as much. "Creepy," "condescending" and "unnecessary" were just a few of the words bandied around social media...

My three-year-old son was unwell last week. He toddled into the kitchen on Sunday evening as I was burning pasta, looked at me and promptly vomited all over his sister’s school bag. Swooping forward and rushing to the bathroom with him, I thought to myself: “Oh God, not this week.” And then I almost buckled at the knees with guilt. My son was clearly unwell, he was puking like his father...

There’s nothing like a little harmless flirt (that’s the verb, not the noun). If it’s reciprocated, it gives you a bit of a perk; puts a smile on your face; makes you think for a second that despite your unwashed hair and the vague smell of baby-sick that follows you around, you’ve still got what it takes to turn a man’s head. Nowadays, most of us have daily interaction with the opposite...

Blue Monday, which landed this year on January 19th, is supposed to be the most depressing day of the year, but surely it’s all relative. For instance, if you won the Lotto that day, gave birth or got a promotion at work, you would be in pretty good form. Or if the foul plague that is the dreaded vomiting bug had finally been purged from your home and the kids were hastily dispatched back to...
