Miriam Cates, a huge supporter of the invisible work done by mothers based at home, was slated by ‘Pregnant then Screwed’ amongst others yesterday with some of her comments taken out of context and misquoted.

Mothers At Home Matter submitted written evidence to the Education Committee's inquiry, Support for childcare and the early years. It has been accepted by the committee and published on their website. You can read it here.

Mothers At Home Matter tackled the unfairness of the tax system today at the House of Commons with a presentation to MPs hosted by Miriam Cates MP. MPs were set five quiz points - which no one got the answers correct - the answers are quite staggering.

We urge you to call on your MP to attend the debate about the Higher Rate Child Benefit Charge this week. Mothers At Home Matter have written a template letter to help you raise the issue of the unfair taxation by which many families are penalised. This is an opportunity to press your MP to represent your view.

Mothers At Home Matter was invited to the Houses of Parliament to hear Erica Komisar talk about ‘raising adolescents in an age of anxiety’.
