What happened? And do you think we have any responsibility to help strangers when they are in need?
Imagine if you were being watched every second of the day to make sure you behaved well. And then you got rewarded or punished depending on how you acted? In this episode, we take a long hard look at Santa Claus, because news flash, we are told he’s watching you day and night.
We admire our favourite sportspeople for their physical skills but do they have to be good people as well?
For centuries humans have ridden horses. We’ve ridden them long distances, into wars, in big races and just for fun. We’ve developed a close relationship with horses. But has anyone asked a horse what it thinks about all this? Would a horse want us to ride it and how would we even know?
Ever opened a present and thought, “I will never use this”. So why not just sell it and buy something you do like? Today’s BITE: Is it okay to sell a present someone gave you? Thanks to Indi for this excellent question.
Do you get pocket money, and if so, do you have to do something to earn it?
If beer has no alcohol in it, is it still really beer?
Have you ever watched a movie or TV show that was meant to be for adults only? Do you wish you hadn’t seen it, or are the rules about what kids can and can’t watch unfair?

At first I made this site for my kids, but like any dad I got a little over excited. I hope you find it as useful as they do.
Whether you want to listen to them together in the car, or alone in your room - the content is all safe for younger ears.
Some brilliant points raised in this. I think really kids just want to emulate the adults they care about and do ‘adult’ looking things.
I know I used to love a small non-alcoholic shandy when I was a kid and we were out for a meal, and pretending to smoke with those candy sticks when it was cold in winter always felt naughty. But I don’t believe anyone that says they drink beer for the taste of it.
