It's International Mother Tongue Day! Languages are playing an important role in #IntergenerationalLinking, helping connections to form: "I am enjoying using my [Turkish] language skills to speak to the older people, it makes me feel special for having a skill not everyone has”

In which I suggest that women are not "forgetting to have babies", but that we live in a society which penalises women for having babies. Maternity discrimination, cost of childcare, lack of flexible working... These are the obstacles we face- not a lack of fertility education.

#OkBoomer ? Yours truly argues here that generational identities didn't start with #Boomers or #Millennials - the concept's history goes back to the French Revolution via the generation @Born1819 and more. See what you think - the article's free to read via link:

Housing for young and old is not a zero sum game. Creating more good-quality homes for older people, including housing-with-care, will free up housing for young people and help create centres of intergenerational mixing. Our new piece for @inter_gen👇 if.org.uk/2021/05/26/hou…
