Mother ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š

Marie from Flaxmere

๐Ÿ’What they don't tell you about being a mother๐Ÿ’

The sleepless nights will end.

They will eventually get potty-trained.

You will miss their pudgy little baby feet.

They will test your patience and you will cry at times, but it will get better.

Teenagers are trying to be independent but they still need you.

You will be both happy and yet profoundly sad when they leave home.

Adult children will amaze you and when they become parents they will thank you for all that you did.

Grandchildren are the best thing ever.

You get to relive being a parent but you also get to sleep.

Enjoy every minute when your children are young, for the days are long but the years are short๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, thereโ€™s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need ๐Ÿช™๐Ÿ’ฐ๐Ÿช™

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship โ€” like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
