When did filling the supermarket trolley become an ethical head melt? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
LIKE IT OR loathe it, we are all firmly living in the era of conscious consumption where supermarket influencers, ingredient gurus and food content creators flood our feeds with an endless list of often contradictory dos and don’ts for feeding your family healthily, ethically and mindfully. For most people, the weekly grocery shopping is rarely described as a leisure activity. True, many parents will remember the sheer glee of going to the supermarket solo when their children were babies or todd
Raising them right: After 14 years learning Irish, it's safe to say... níl a fhios agam (opens the original)
Read excerpt
LIKE MANY IRISH adults, I spent 14 years learning our native language in the classroom but left with the ability to only string a few very random sentences together. They are so awkward and truncated that if I were to speak to them in English during a regular conversation with another adult, they might assume that I was having a stroke or some kind of neurological episode and phone an ambulance. “I have one brother and a red school bag.” I feel both ashamed and disappointed at my lack of Irish.
Raising them right: Aren’t all families secretly a bit like The Traitors? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
AS MUCH AS we like to tell our young children that honesty is the best policy, it’s not always strictly true and nowhere is our love of a bit of smooth deception more evident than with hit TV show The Traitors. I’m going to hold my hands up and confess that I am a superfan of this highly addictive show. I’ve been firmly on The Traitors train since it first dropped on the BBC in 2022, as a strange sort of November filler no one really knew about. The show, which is based on a Dutch programme, is

Read excerpt
A MISTRIAL HAS been declared in the Lindsay Clancy case in the US. The 36-year-old was on trial for the murder of her three children, Cora, five, Dawson, three and eight-month-old Callan, by strangulation in her Massachusetts home in January 2023. The defence’s case was that Clancy admitted killing her children, but pleaded not guilty by reason of lack of criminal responsibility, due to her suffering from postpartum psychosis at the time. Lindsay Clancy speaks with her lawyer Kevin Reddington du
Raising them right: Hot school meals won't fix lunches if kids don't have enough time to eat (opens the original)
Read excerpt
IF YOU’RE STILL packing a lunchbox for your child as they head back to school this week, despite the presence of the Hot School Meals Programme in your classroom, you’re far from alone. While it’s tempting to assume the government-funded initiative has magically removed the need for parents to send in snacks and full lunches for their children regularly, the evidence from parents on the ground is that it has not. Earlier this year, a national survey of more than 8,000 parents, teachers and suppl
