‘Our Generation Did It. So Maybe You Could Just Shut Up?’

Subscribe to Mamamia For almost 25 years Britney Spears’ image was treated and controlled like a product. Now she’s free to do what she wants, she’s choosing dancing in her underwear. So why are we so uncomfortable? We unpack and discuss her new memoir The Woman in Me. Plus, a new policy could see new parents in Australia get more money and time off after having a baby. Is it up to everyone to care, or just those who it directly affects?  And, are we expecting too much from our pets? We look at the impact of "too many dogs". The End Bits:  Listen to our latest subscriber episode: A Dilemma About Sharing A Baby Photo Read: 'I am 100 people deep on wait lists'. The reality of trying to find childcare right now.   RECOMMENDATION: Clare wants you to watch Hot Potato: The Story of the Wiggles Sign up to the Mamamia Out Loud Newsletter for all our recommendations in one place.  GET IN TOUCH: Feedback?
