あらすじ・解説
My TV choices these days are quite different to life before motherhood but I’ve always enjoyed a good Disney movie.
Something that has always struck me though is how so many of these movies, and indeed fairytales of yesteryear, are based on the absence or loss of a parent and 'replaced' by a not so nice step parent coming in the scene.
Maybe because things like divorce were not deemed acceptable or the fact that no one could ever replace a parent that was lost.
Whatever the drivers are behind the messaging around step-parents, the narrative needs to shift. And I have just the person to prove that step-parents have such great intentions and care deeply about the children in their lives.
Join me now as I speak with Chloe Foy, Behavioural Strategist, about her journey, the expectations and reality of becoming a non-biological parent in her thirties.
