Working mother UK: March 2009
http://workingmotheruk.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, 14 March 2009. I am happy to report that last night Supernanny prevailed and order has been restored amongst the chaos. My faith in the future after the "terrible twos" has been re-newed. Currently, naptime is underway and I am enjoying the peace, quiet and sunshine. Enough of that - back to the list of chores! Friday, 13 March 2009. Thank God she is not like the brat on Supernanny tonight! It is almost like watching The Exorcist. Is this what I have to look forward to in the future? Another br...

Working mother UK: September 2009
http://workingmotheruk.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 29 September 2009. We make them fat too. New research ( http:/ jech.bmj.com/cgi/content/short/jech.2008.084590v1? Q=w jech ahead tab. In the Journal of Epidemiology and Health shows that children of working mothers are much more likely to be couch potatoes and eat junk food. They get driven to school and many eat less than two of their five fresh fruit and veg portions a day. Research was released today in the UK that "working Mums raise unhealthier children". While I won't get into the deta...

Working mother UK: Am I happier?
http://workingmotheruk.blogspot.com/2009/10/am-i-happier.html
Friday, 2 October 2009. New research suggests working mothers are more hurried, more guilty, probably at work because they enjoy it as much as because they need the money, possibly making their children unhappy, but they are also happier. I'm going to say a huge HURRAH to that. It's certainly true of me. Work isn't always perfect, and the pressure is sometimes intense. But I enjoy the professional side of my life. Do I enjoy it as much as the mothering side of my life? No, and no, of course not. To me th...

Working mother UK: Hairy legs
http://workingmotheruk.blogspot.com/2009/09/hairy-legs.html
Thursday, 24 September 2009. What is it still about women and hair? Hurrah that it's now ok for a size normal model to go down the catwalk but Gwyneth Paltrow can't have a few downy blonde hairs without causing a scandal in the LondonLite ( http:/ www.thisislondon.co.uk/showbiz/article-23747790-coldplay-gwyneth-paltrows-more-a-razor-light.do.

Working mother UK: The Blame Game
http://workingmotheruk.blogspot.com/2009/09/blame-game.html
Tuesday, 29 September 2009. Research was released today in the UK that "working Mums raise unhealthier children". While I won't get into the details of the research as you can read it yourself at ( http:/ www.managementtoday.co.uk/rss/article/941798/. Or ( http:/ www.ucl.ac.uk/news/news-articles/0909/09092903. It is clear that blaming working mothers for the decline of the health of children (and society in general) is still headline grabbing and popular. Come on - give me a break! We make them fat too.

Working mother UK: August 2009
http://workingmotheruk.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, 22 August 2009. Sole income earner mother pressure. Both my sister-in-laws are currently sole income earners in their homes. One hopes this is a temporary situation, the other is resigned to the fact that the role have permanently switched in her home, and that she will need to sustain the household moving forwards whilst her husband cares for the home full time. I've often thought that having a "wife" - again, function, not gender - who runs the home as well as a husband who works like I do an...

Monday, 26 October 2009. Still looking for new childcare - so if anyone out there knows anyone experienced at childcare looking for a job, post me a post! Sunday, 11 October 2009. Do women really want to work? A new CPS report written by Christina Odone, and based on YouGove research (read it here: http:/ www.cps.org.uk/cps catalog/what%20women%20want.pdf. Fathers going to work is good too. Working full time is in many ways easier than working part time - the childcare options are certainly much easier.

This is not a call for simple numerical equality, but a plea for deep cultural change. How can we move on from our ‘hard powered’ ethos with its excessive risk, competition and reliance on force to a ‘softer powered’ public space? Soft Power is a ‘psychosocial’ phenomenon, sourced in the culture of a nation or the character of an individual. It arises in relationship ...
