Thankfully a minority! Never had it said to my face anyway. And I think we all have so many life experiences that differ to each other - but it's about empathy isn't it. And even within similar experiences, we can all have different feelings about them

Same vibe as 'fathers of daughters' suddenly realising women should have equal rights. It's really upsetting when people think if you don't have kids you can't understand harm or pain being caused to children. Not to mention plenty of people WITH kids cause them untold harm and pain.

And thanks a mill, I could do a whole other podcast on the 'what the hell do I do next' phase that come after the book!

Aw damn, I didn't see you at all Carol sorry! That was probably when we were near the sounddesk trying to figure out mics - our event was on afterwards. Sorry we didn't get to catch up, the Afua Hirsch event looked great!
