In this episode of WM People, Ben and Mandy talk about the childcare budget announcement this week, single mums and Mother’s Day 2023.
They begin the episode discussing the childcare budget announcement last week, giving a brief overview of the changes and what the impact will be on working parents.
Single parents will be among the most impacted by the changes, so Ben and Mandy discuss what single parenthood involves more broadly and the emotional implications of being a sole guardian to children.
Lastly, Ben and Mandy reflect on mother’s day 2023, which was last week, and how meaningful the day is for different people depending on their parent-child relationships.
