A woman on my flight yesterday switched seats with her husband because their toddler wouldn’t stop crying.
The second she sat down alone, she closed her eyes for maybe 30 seconds.
Just resting.
Not sleeping.
When the husband walked past with the kid later, he laughed and said loudly,
“Must be nice to finally get a break from doing nothing.”
A few people chuckled.
She laughed too.
But something about it felt off because for the entire flight she had been:
holding the baby,
packing snacks,
cleaning spills,
walking him down the aisle,
missing her own meal trying to calm him down…
while the husband watched a movie with headphones on.
And honestly I think that’s why so many women are exhausted.
Not because they’re doing everything alone.
But because they’re doing everything while someone else calls it “nothing.”

Despite his slightly dodgy sounding name, another RE bod has introduced me to this guy and he's even done a video about my latest bit of learning- the Norman use of Sheela-na-gigs in churches
Check out Inspector Organ's video! #TikTok vm.tiktok.com/ZNRt5sLbf/

I think our younger children really hook into the learning- they can tell you all about Hany El-Bana or Margalit from the belonging and believing books #REchatUK

We very much use fictionalised case studies through our persona dolls in EYFS, some fictionalised and some real in KS1- must give @BooksAtPress a shout out here for the excellent belonging and believing resources and moving more to the real case studies across KS2 #REchatUK

We use William Wilberforce (who is from just across the Humber from us) in Y5/6. It really helped us not only focus on his worldview but we used it (or tried to) with a FORB lens looking at freedom. Very few of ours knew who he was! #REchatUK

mine was working on the REC project with @GillCGeorgiou. It really changed my thinking about the way we deliver R.E. #REchatUK
