 It’s almost been a year since Tiger King glued us to our screens and, yeah – we can’t believe it’s been that long either.
A good documentary utterly grips you in a way that the best comedies, thrillers, and dramas just can’t match because the subject matter actually happened. Fiction is crazy, but reality is crazier (like Exotic Joe believing that moustache really worked for him).
If you are ready to be gripped again, we’ve pulled together a list of six recently released documentaries you’ll find interesting, rewarding, and just a little bit addictive. (more…) |

So, that leaves parents in 2020 with a conundrum: when do I give my child their first phone? Is it a question of them reaching a certain age, or is it a case of them showing a level of maturity?

Like most aspects of parenting, there are no hard-and-fast rules for when a child is ready for the responsibility of a mobile – but that doesn’t mean you’re without help. We’ve scouted the web to bring you a step-by-step manual for solving this digital dilemma. |
Technology changes fast. Twenty years ago, only a handful of adults had a mobile phone – but two decades on the digital time spectrum is equivalent to the Jurassic age and modern-day. Trying to explain dialup to a pre-teen will elicit the same wild-eyed bewilderment as “a stegosaurus was as big as this house”.
