Turn Back Into A Teen When You Go Home For Xmas? You're Not Alone
It's that time of year when you might be heading home to see family for Christmas. Heading home for the holidays can be charged with so many emotions, excitement, comforting, soul charging, but it can also bring about some other feelings. Maybe you walk in the door of your family home and turn back into the teenage version of yourself, reacting in the same way to triggers you did years earlier? In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at why we do this and how we navigate family dynamics at this time of year. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!

What Did Prince Harry Just Win?
Back in 2005 a newspaper, owned by Rupert Murdoch, ran a story about Prince William hurting his knee. It raised suspicions amongst the royals. Why?
