Do you remember when magazines were packed with weight loss stories, "heroin chic" goals, and how a size 12 woman was considered "big"?
Today, Annaliese reflects on the media that shaped our childhood and how social media now plays the same role for kids today. Which is worse, and how can we protect our kids from it?
Plus Sarah Marie solves a generational battle and we hear how Aussie Mum's are wrangling their dinner time.
