 WOW. These people teach our children.....

Tom Elliott has clashed with “Teachers for Palestine” spokesperson and Victorian secondary school teacher, Pippa Tandy, as the activist group launches an attack on Anzac Day.

The activist group says “we won’t be glorifying Australia’s military history this Anzac Day” and the 3AW Mornings host grilled Ms Tandy over her knowledge of Anzac Day and history in general.

“You realise you sound like a conspiracy theorist,” he said.

If I spend a couple of thousand dollars on an airfare and have to put up with a baby nearby, then that's fine. I can put on headphones and get on with it. I go into the flight knowing these type of things can happen. I don't think it is a fair thing to spend a couple of hundred dollars on tickets to a comedy show and be seated next to a baby. That's inconsiderate and frankly selfish.

100% linghi11 - that clip was enough to show how noisy the kid could be & how totally oblivious to it the mother was.

Gurgling squeaking practicing words at maximum volume - the lot. All enough for me to leave the room or hit mute. I watched the interviews, heard the baby, and I’d have not wanted to be in that audience

Egocentrism at its worse. By all means enjoy your kid - just not at everyone's else's expense

Tip - its not all about the mother & the kid

I absolutely cannot handle the sound of a loudly crying baby, since childhood. The pitch just invades my skull - it’s apparently quite common, barking dogs do the same.

Without reading back thru all this.  Has anyone seen this bloke ?  To be honest I have never heard of him.  He does come across as a bit of a princess .  Is he funny ?  I saw a bloke on TV other night, apparently well known but cant remember his name, and he WAS funny.  His spiel was sort of general life stuff that I could relate to.  Like.  His Mum told him he needed to smarten up, then his Dad told him not to get smart . Only his telling was funny.
Honestly, I dont dislike kids in spite of what I say. I just believe there are some places not suitable to take them. And yes, JJ, at the races and football would be fine with me.
We have 5 year old twin boys next door, and OMG what a pair. Just went out to the kitchen and here,s Jonah going thru my fridge looking for chockie, while his Bro looks out for me coming, only he didnt do a very good job, and I caught them.  I called them a pair of little monkeys, only Rusty would be here telling me thats racist.

Amber, 34, Perth (member of Breastfeeding Advocacy Australia's Facebook group)

I went to a musical with my breastfed baby.

I checked with the theatre beforehand and was told babies in arms was fine. No ticket needed.

The lady next to me only realised I had her when we went to leave.

And yes, she was awake for a good chunk.

One slight grizzle then onto boob and fine again.

I think one of the ushers noticed too and was only helpful about it all.

I'm glad I took her as I would have never left the house otherwise!

 I think people are mostly so uneducated about breastfeeding and the reality is that they don't understand what comments like "stay home to feed" or "leave baby with someone else", actually mean for mums.

The mother of the seven-month-old said she had previously brought her baby to Dave Hughes’ comedy set and he had “moved on like a true professional”.

“You kind of lose yourself a little bit when you have kids. I was trying to get back to enjoying something that I enjoyed before kids," she said.

 As to the Arj Barker situation...two things...

 In a statement, the Melbourne International Comedy Festival said it was aware of the incident on Saturday night, but was not responsible for the event itself. 

"Arj is independently produced and at a venue not managed by the festival, however, any interaction between performers and their audiences requires sensitivity and respect," a festival spokesperson said.

"In our festival managed venues, babes in arms are generally allowed but we do ask people to sit up the back with their child so they can quickly and easily leave if the baby gets noisy, so as not to disturb the artist and other patrons."

my daughter when a baby ate a hard piece of nectarine which her Mum gave her. she got it stuck in her throat and we were at a horse clinic in the middle of the Tassie bush with no reception. she was frothing at the mouth and struggling to breath. I managed to get it out eventually with my little finger down her throat and all was ok however it knocked the gelati out of me. Once she was right I gave her to her Mum and went away and broke down crying. Scared the f uck out of me. 

I spoke to my old boss who is a volunteer paramedic and he said worst case scenario is to blow it into the lungs then get them to hospital. I never want to experience that again.

 My daughter nearly choked to death on a leaf. Only my quick action, forcing my finger down her throat to push it to the side, saved her.

 One of the most frightening things I've ever dealt with. Her eyes and nose were running wildly with fluids as she struggled to breathe.   

 I had simply put her pram too close to a bush, and she had pulled off the leaf and put it in her mouth.

Cherry tomatoes are another one.

Also from personal experience even foods like bacon are beter chopped up into bite sized pieces.
Seeing Manchester United relegated would mean more than words can describe to me.

I went to Arj Barker a few ago and would never pay money to see him again. He was seriously unfunny and spent half the show pushing his merch
 I view of the 'Baby Controversy "I see many top -end Melbourne restaurants have come out and said kids are not welcome at their restaurant. To name a few France Soir, Society, Raine & La Rue exclude kids, therefore if that woman with that baby intends to visit Melbourne and take in a top-end restaurant she might have to exclude those three for starters.Wink

Yes, Elon Musk looks creepy Thumbs Up
And seriously, this bail BS needs a massive shake up.  This gung ho tough guy kills this young woman while on bail for previous violent offences .  So, lets start holding the judge who grants bail to these people guilty for their actions , and see how long before things get shook up.  Disgusting.

While we are all discussing the baby at the concert.
If you have them, hold them close.  Today, here in town,  we had a baby boy choke to death on a grape.  A F********** grape,,,,,CryCryCry
