  2. Emma and Dion Thank you so much! Louise and Phoebe blew me away with their comments, It is nice to know how they feel, and I think it is especially hard for teens to express affection so it was lovely to hear and watch Louise . Phoebe is …
    well…. Phoebe! her slant on things is a bit different to many, so it didn’t surprise us that the “chocolate” issue was foremost in her mind, and for good reasons her intake of chocolate( sugar) has to be monitored.
    G.A P S and Grakca ( Grandparents, relatives and kinship carers ) are a lifeline for many, and a wealth of information, a helping hand (or where to get one) or just a sypathetic ear even a few good jokes! are all part of our meetings.Thanks again for getting the message out there so well.

  3. I am of the opinion that your Saturday morning show is absolute garbage. You had three youngish people giving opinions about how some celebrities looked in out fits that they chose to wear. Personally these “critics” should take a long hard look in the mirror before voicing thier judgemental opinions about people they do not even personally know. It makes me I’ll to think that they can come on tv and express negative attitudes towards celebs. If you look at the two woman and the male sitting between them. Both the women had bags you could carry groceries in under thier eyes. Sounded to me like they are the sole reason women are so critical of themselves. But then again I am just one male no longer watching the weekend advertisement show.
    Yea I know look who is being judgemental now. Just giving you the reason you have lost a morning show viewer.
