1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:03,840 Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda's. 2 00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:05,240 Speaker 2: You must be devo. You can no longer be Mother 3 00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 2: of the Year. I was going to you were due 4 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:09,920 Speaker 2: to be Mother of the Year. Surely this story has 5 00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:13,320 Speaker 2: well me up, actually has it. Yeah, Barnardo's Mother of 6 00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:13,600 Speaker 2: the Year. 7 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 1: The dropping thereof Bernardo's isna the award, the mother of 8 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:21,400 Speaker 1: the Year award. And we'll discuss whine a second. And 9 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:23,360 Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of Bannado's and I approve of this, 10 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 1: but it's the front page of the Dirty Telegraph. Bernardo's 11 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 1: Australia is under fire for accident. Its Mother of the 12 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:32,040 Speaker 1: Year award under fire only from that newspaper, I'm assuming, 13 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 1: and the reason it's and then they've got this whole 14 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 1: article in here about how dare they neglect mums there? 15 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:41,880 Speaker 1: If we drop moms, wouldn't have Mother Teresa, Mother of Pearl. 16 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 1: They're canceling mums. Imagine if all the mums had been canceled, 17 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: not canceling mothers. Bannardos do extraordinary work. And what Banardos 18 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,519 Speaker 1: have said is Bannardo's work with children who live with 19 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 1: a variety of families, and among those families, we like 20 00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,200 Speaker 1: to support soule parents same sex couples, families with both 21 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 1: a mother and a father, figure, relatives caring for children 22 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,680 Speaker 1: of family members, children who cared for by grandparents. We 23 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,039 Speaker 1: also celebrate the work that's done by our foster cares 24 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: right across New South Wales and the Act. Taking this 25 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 1: into consideration, the decision has been made to bring Barnardo's 26 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 1: Mother of the Year to a close. We believe in 27 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: celebrating all families and be looking to develop a campaign 28 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 1: in the future that does that. And I've done some 29 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: stories and things with children in foster care. We don't 30 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: realize how hard it is for how many kids are 31 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 1: in foster care and the system dumps them of the 32 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 1: day they turn eighteen. Bernardo's is a rare organization that 33 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 1: looks after these kids, and I think they're absolutely right 34 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,759 Speaker 1: to say it's not all just mums who look after 35 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 1: these families, who create families for these children. It's not 36 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: just mums. So for the newspaper to say they're canceling mothers, 37 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 1: they're not canceling mothers. And Barnardos need our help. They're 38 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 1: COVID fundraising. All these places mast. 39 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 2: Out last year. Maybe it should be in our deft hands. 40 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 2: Maybe we should have the mother. 41 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 1: Of the you're missing My point isn't symbolic who creates 42 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 1: a family, and of course. 43 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 2: Not, but you know the moms are good. Of course 44 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 2: they are. You're a good mom. 45 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: Of course to think I am. 46 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 2: Going to have categories of you know, the mom swim suit. 47 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 2: Let me write that down, please, Mom's taxi. 48 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,359 Speaker 1: Sure well. 49 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 2: I never get dead of the what I get dead of. 50 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 1: The They do have dead of the years. 51 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,239 Speaker 2: She always wins that every time. 52 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 1: Because he's a good dad.
