"As a dad, you have a lot of questions you want to ask other dads. We’re talking to each other about our feelings and doubts, if we’ve felt overwhelmed. It’s nice to know everyone has been there."

"I believe a mother is a mother. A mother is a mother to a child who is no longer here. You’re a mother if you’re a step-mum. You’re a mother if you chose to be a mother to a child who needed one. Families don’t always have to be the traditional way; they can be how you make them."

"We thought, what can we use in our lived experience? Thinking back to childhood times, and what that means for our kids and our family – we try to stay together as a community."

"My parents told us lots of stories. We saw them reading and we read together. We were in a household of reading, and it was a kind of parenting by example."
