It's tough being a parent! That's nothing new you say, it's been that way for years, just get on with it!
But, I think in the media-centric information age we live in, it is truer than ever. We are bombarded constantly with headlines, studies, billboards, updates, tweets, twats, the works! And the thing is, there is no consistency!
What will I give little Mikey for his breakfast? Cereal is healthy right..
Right?
Newspaper article: "Your child needs vitamins! 5 out 8 children are deficient in zinc, potassium, B12, B7 and B156789"
Health Study: "Breakfast cereals are over fortified with vitamins and may cause harm to your children"
Billboard: "Every bite of these crispy, golden flakes are filled with essential vitamins and minerals"
Readers Digest: "Top 6 vitamins that could be killing you slowly"
Twitter: "My son just ate 6 boxes of cornflakes. Does that mean I shouldn't give him cereal for a few weeks?"
Ah feck it, I'll just give him a bar of chocolate!
