To anyone missing their Mum in heaven this Mother's Day, may these words be from you if you need them to be.

On this International Women's Day I am thinking about the millions of Afghan women and girls who continue to have their basic human rights denied.
Today it is 1267 days since the Taliban banned teenage girls from going to school.

I don’t approve of taking kids’ playtime away as a punishment at school. Socialising & exercising are 2 of the most important patterns of behaviour for promoting wellbeing & these happen abundantly during playtime. Given this, depriving kids of play seems immoral. #twitterEPs

@DrTinarae Wow, this is beautiful.

Delighted that Leeya and I have had our paper published

It's in the latest special edition of ECP, wonderfully edited by Marc, Leeya & Charmian.

[Dr Abigail Wright 💓🧠 @PsychEdMum @psychedmum]

There is still so much focus on only assessing an individual… Imagine if we focus more on assessing the context around the person, that impacts on daily experience…. We exist in context and not in isolation of others and an environment. It can’t just be a “you problem”.
