Parents beware of the 'soundbite', why some women cheat, and ring me tonight...
In today's Telegraph newspaper I've commented on what I call soundbite parenting - parents speaking in clipped, short 'bites' to their children and I worry about the increasing rarity of more meaningful conversations in families.
This surely must play into our quite appalling mental health figures for children - with the Mental Health Foundation funding 20% of children in a given year report anxiety and depression.
Onto betrayal...if you've thought about cheating or have cheated there may be one of 1000 reasons why you did. I've written an article about some the reasons why women cheat based on an MSN UK poll. Of course they're all sorts of reasons and here's the link for you to check some of the main things that came out of the survey.
Tonight is my regular agony aunt slot on Sue Marchant's BBC Eastern regions show. We'll be chatting from 715 about any issue that effects you.
So why not get in touch at 7pm tonight by texting your dilemma to 81333. As it's Sue’s show begin your text with Sue followed by your dilemma.
You can also listen live at BBC radio Cambridgeshire and ring Sue and me to chat on 0845 30 50 007.
TODAY’S TIP: Whatever your dilemma one of the best first steps to take is to sit down and put pen to paper and ‘think in ink’. Make some notes about what's happening - your feelings about it, the other person's feelings, the things that have been said.
Reading it at yourself you might identify another way of trying to solve this problem. Good luck with it and happy Monday, Pamx
