In my most recent Sun column, I reflect on having a parental nurturing role in life, something I am quite surprised to find myself in:
This led me to reflect on my position in society. There is a belief that I don’t like children. This is not true. I don’t like parents who don’t seem to realise that their children will have to be part of society one day but don’t equip them for the experience. I love children.
