Is it really so smart to give your child a smartphone? – BeHome Blog
https://behomeblog.wordpress.com/2015/07/14/is-it-really-so-smart-to-give-your-child-a-smartphone
Welcome to the New Vision of the Home, by Joanna Roughton. Is it really so smart to give your child a smartphone? July 14, 2015. July 14, 2015. What is the biggest threat to our idea of home? If we lived in the land of TV soap operas, the answer would be: all of the above! But in the real world, the developed world of smoke alarms, mortgage protection, burglar alarms and loving marriages, such dramatic events are rare. But with laptops, desk-tops, tablets and smart-phones all in use by my children, I fee...

June 2015 – BeHome Blog
https://behomeblog.wordpress.com/2015/06
Welcome to the New Vision of the Home, by Joanna Roughton. For Home and Homeland. June 19, 2015. There has been a Bishop of Durham since 995 and, over that millennium and more, quite a few incumbents must have ruffled the odd feather. It didn’t help when, three days after his consecration at York Minister, the cathedral was struck by lightening and seriously damaged by fire. Well, for anyone under 40, that’s all ancient history I suppose. This is what the Bishop of Durham said last week: On behalf of the...

Welcome to the New Vision of the Home, by Joanna Roughton. Home-maker Bonuses: From the Ridiculous to the Sublime. May 20, 2015. May 22, 2015. Every so often a book comes out of America that makes the jaws of British parents drop vertically and stay there. The last tome that did it for me was Amy Chua’s ‘The Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother’. It was the story of how a Chinese/American lawyer squeezed the last ounce of performance from her hyper-scheduled daughters. Says Ms Martin: It might be hammered out...

Home is where the Hoover is – BeHome Blog
https://behomeblog.wordpress.com/2015/06/08/home-is-where-the-hoover-is
Welcome to the New Vision of the Home, by Joanna Roughton. Home is where the Hoover is. June 8, 2015. June 8, 2015. Every day during the most recent school holidays, such was how the day began, with me bellowing this call-to-domestic-arms through the house. Only my eldest daughter, mired in the slog of GCSE homework, was excused. All five of my other children – ranging in ages from 12 to five – were expected to report for duty. It seems, however, that I am in the minority. I did chores as a child, an...

Taking Responsibility for Our Own ‘Eating Culture’ – BeHome Blog
https://behomeblog.wordpress.com/2015/05/07/taking-responsibility-for-our-own-eating-culture
Welcome to the New Vision of the Home, by Joanna Roughton. Taking Responsibility for Our Own ‘Eating Culture’. May 7, 2015. Last year we planted three dwarf apple trees. It will take years before they bear edible fruit so, in the mean time, we will rely – not so much on nature’s bounty – as the supermarket’s. I work on the basis that if someone can see an apple, they might be tempted to eat it. There’s nothing new in that psychology, after all. Think Garden of Eden. In households where food ‘escaped’ fro...

Ticking the Boxes for a Guest-Ready Home? – BeHome Blog
https://behomeblog.wordpress.com/2015/04/29/ticking-the-boxes-for-a-guest-ready-home
Welcome to the New Vision of the Home, by Joanna Roughton. Ticking the Boxes for a Guest-Ready Home? April 29, 2015. When you welcome a visitor into your home, which things create a bad impression? According to a survey of 2,000 people, the answers are simple. Dirty skirting boards, cluttered stairs and bad coffee. Piles of junk mail, coats on a banister and unstacked shoes are also considered de trop. And the things which impress a friend who pops in to say hello? For example, the AirWick press release ...

Welcome to the New Vision of the Home, by Joanna Roughton. Outside the home, ditch the flip-flops. July 10, 2016. Imagine turning up to a wedding to find the vicar wearing jeans and a football shirt. This week have conjured up this scenario in the wake of a ruling by the Church of England’s General Synod. The decision, which will require final approval next year, is the result of a campaign to allow Anglican priests to ‘reach out’ to modern worshippers. Does it matter how we dress outside the home? It is...
