Re: Would you look through your daughter's phone?

13 is a v difficult year for teens. If you feel something is wrong, it might be worth chatting to them, or their form tutor or checking their phone. I try being very kind to them. When they scream and shout about stuff I ask “are you ok? Do you need a hug?” because I think that school is hard this y...

Re: Wimbledon Tennis Tour & museum

Did you book ticket online or just turn up? And was it expensive?

Re: ex bringing new girlfriend on family holiday

Look I know that everyone should be adult about it and that you and him each have to move on with your own lives etc but I have to agree with Goldhawk. You will be doing all the parenting and your ex will be busy having fun with his new girlfriend and his friends and if you start asking him to do be...

Re: Has anyone had to tell their husband that they smell?!

I agree with scientist. There is no excuse for bad hygiene in 21st century. But if you don’t want to tell him, just set your alarms a little earlier so that he definitely has time to shower after his run and before work. Or run him a bath for when he gets back. And if he smells that bad he might jus...

Re: Next door vegan neighbours objecting to us barbecuing

This is tricky one as I, like others, see both sides of the argument. Gas bbq’s give out very little smoke and if they put the lid down there is less smell but there is still a smell. Therefore, the OP might want to cook inside with their doors and windows opened to help minimise the smell in their ...

Re: Visual tracking

A friend’s child has recently been diagnosed with this overseas and before this I had no knowledge of it either. As well as going to see someone who specialises in computer exercises, the child has been asked to hang a tennis ball on a string from the ceiling and lie below it and watch it move from ...

Re: 'stalker Environmental officer'

I live in a road with a school. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if these officers could be outside of the school and ticket people there. When school’s on holiday there is little or no rubbish in my garden but when school is in there is loads. Also, can they please target those builders / taxi drivers / wh...

Re: Can a tutor do this?

Hi Tom Thomas, I had a very interesting chat with someone yesterday about increasing movement in hands and funnily enough he recommended using chopsticks for eating and for games to strengthen hand-strength and hand-eye coordination. I have also written a comprehension checklist which really helps -...

Re: Smart bins coming to Wandsworth

They would be so useful to have outside schools (state and private) and outside stations because they fill up so quickly as well as fast food areas. In general Wandsworth needs more bins and more dog-waste bins. The time not spent going to check all of the bins could be time spent dealing with those...

Re: Ball Games Area - Chivalry Road

It would be wonderful too if the Chivalry Road playground could have some loos added. It would be lovely to go there and not have to watch yet another poor child relieve themselves in the bushes that other children play in.

Oh Giggles. My heart aches for you and the difficult position that you're in. I have read everyone's opinions and so here is my humble opinion. You have had HIS baby which has altered your body temporarily and changed both your lives forever and he has chosen not to meet the challenge of parenthood ...

Re: Pooping on the common

I would have been so embarrassed if that had been my child but, unlike that mummy, I would have asked around for a doggy pooh bag to get rid of it. Surely there must have been a dog owner nearby or even another mum who might have had a nappy bag? I have a D who gets often caught short (thankfully we...
