Hi Caroline
This video really affected my boys when they saw it.
Speaking of parallel universes - I have had many conversations with teachers
about their birthing and maternity care experiences, and they identify
parallels between the ways women are treated in 'the system' and the way the
education system is constructed and how children get their education.

Another universe where there are many parallels to maternity care, is mental
health care.

Yes - lots of work to be done as you say.

in solidarity back - Lynne
