My brother is a chef who cooks steak and sweet potato chips for my 7-month-old because my pre-packaged baby food was ‘c**p': Flora Gill
As a big sister there's nothing worse than your little brother being right. But the one subject he can't be an expert on is parenting. I had my baby Jesse seven months ago, so I can comfortably say that I know more on the subject than he does. Which is why, despite his job as a private chef, when he told me my pre-packaged baby food was c**p I initially ignored him. After all, it was the expensive, high-end stuff with packaging covered in nice graphics of healthy-looking veggies.

DEAR CAROLINE: Being a stay-at-home mother has made me feel invisible and I don't know if I can get my marriage working again. Am I too old to start over?
Q When I was younger, I gave up the chance of a career to concentrate on providing a home for my family. My husband has always had a good job and was happy to be the earner. We have two lovely children and when they were little I felt needed and content to fulfil the homemaker role. I'm now in my early 50s and the children, who are young adults, need me less. I feel like I've become invisible. My husband and I have grown distant. We still talk, but it's mostly about admin or his work and we don't connect in a meaningful way. It's as if I've become a member of his staff because he's still busy leading his important work life.
