Poll: To change or not to change?

Emelyn McHardy Reporter from Franklin County News

Hey Neighbours,
How do you feel about your name?
Do you like it?
Do you hate it?
Do you want to change it?

One woman had her younger years tainted by the fact that she shared her name with five others in her class, so she changed it as soon as possible.

Now her daughter Esmee is about to start full-time education but will be sharing her name with two others in her class.

Horrified by this the mother posted to an anonymous parenting site if it would be unreasonable to change her daughter's name.

What do you think?
Has anyone in Franklin had a similar name situation?
What did you do about it?

Please put NFP if you don't want your comment printed.

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?

Time to Tickle Your Thinker 🧠

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

If a zookeeper had 100 pairs of animals in her zoo, and two pairs of babies are born for each one of the original animals, then (sadly) 23 animals don’t survive, how many animals do you have left in total?
