University Student's Renting: My dilemma

Did you know you need to be a UK homeowner to act as guarantor for you child's rent outside of halls of residents? In Bristol you do! I never knew it was an issue until now. Low income families with bright children going to university be aware. Starting a degree is not the issue but continuing to the end can be the challenge. Links below for more research so you can be prepared or campaign for change.

Handling Incident at School

Sharing my response to an incident a Year 7 mother is facing with her daughter's new secondary school. Nipping things in the bud early is key. Schools keep written records, even an email is a record, so parents need to do the same. What could/should we ask the school to do? Can we use role play at home to help our children practice how they respond to help them survive? Instagram: BevparenttalkEmail. parenttalkwithbev@gmail.com

Parents v Grandparents: The struggle is real

When it comes to grandparents and our children are parents always between a rock and a hard place? A nan's comment, to her grandchild, led to a lengthy conversation between me and her mum. This podcast is some of my reflections on the struggles, questions and tensions of a complex relationships with our parents in this new grandparent role. How do we find the courage to tell our parents they are wrong? How do we teach our children to be who they are but respectfully? Do we hear any pearls of wisdom from our parents, or does it all just sound like criticism?Instagram @bevparenttalkEmail: parenttalkwithbev@gmail.com

Parenting for the long haul

This was the last unpublished podcast for 2022 reflecting on how we might deal with the long journey of parenting. Like others, over the past twenty years, I have had to find my way over and my journey is not finished. I sometimes have felt crushed, in this space, but share some things that might help us to cope a little more on our pathways.

Christmas Alone

Christmas season 2022 can be the lonely for so many reasons. Parents, or anyone alone at this time can seem hopeless. Is that true? What might we learn from loneliness? How might we share what's really important? May we find joy in the simple things and gain hope for our tomorrows. Blessed Holidays All!

State verses Independent/Private Schools Part 2 of 2

A "nitty gritty" final part of our discussion on the topic. Do more Black teachers need to apply to teach in these places? Shouldn't different cultures be in these spaces to show the world is a wider place? Is it all about networking rather than education? Listen as each guest leaves a word of wisdom/advice or encouragement for us all.
