Protecting girls from abuse, male carers, and chocolate for women

Would more relationship advice at school help prevent violence against teenage girls? Plus male carers, chocolate for women, James Bond, and is the foodie fad over?

Would more relationship advice at school help prevent violence against teenage girls? With two new films focusing on male carers we discuss the problems and rewards of the role. The more we look the less we cook - is the foodie fad over? Marketing chocolate at women, and the suave suits of James Bond.
