In brave new world for parents, even those with expertise turn to the new experts - Chloe Shorten. I love a good expert. As an 18 year old copygirl and cub reporter at the Sunday Mail in Brisbane I was amazed at the detail and craft and checks and balances of the people in the newsroom. In a chambray shirt and headband I loved being in the home of Queensland Newspapers running up and down the lino hallways to take the pages to the printers. They were a passionate and diverse group of old hands and young idealists. There were serious editors, two librarians to serve up photographs and background material and sub-editors whose eyes rarely left their terminals. There were lawyers I never clapped eyes on. It was a romantic place that reinforced my TV watching view of news breakers. I wasn’t the Lois Lane I thought I might be and instead worked as a researcher and a writer for magazines where the deadlines and stories were longer and less likely to impact the government or company of the day.

I was just three when Elsie opened – it was the first refuge in Australia to provide urgent assistance to battered wives and children.

That was in 1974. It was a time when it was finally being recognised that abused women and children didn’t need a break from the violence, they needed it to end. A time when activists across the globe were fighting to change a community perception that was centred around shame – a perception that is best captured by the title of Erin Pizzey’s book Scream Quietly or the Neighbours Will Hear.

I do not have any memory of this time but for as long as I can remember my mother, Quentin Bryce, has fought to eliminate domestic violence from the community. It wasn’t a passing interest – it has been a lifetime commitment. Whitlam government first to respond Chloe Shorten. Chloe Shorten : International Women's Day — an excellent convention, however, tremendously unfinished business - Social Awareness.

For over a century, women and men have been meeting up on March 8 to consider the advancement made towards gender equality and stopping violence against women. It's a great custom which started in New York when women initially challenged against their working conditions. This specific day, is a time to take-a-break and respect those on whose shoulders we stand. My kin and I spent an adolescence sitting at dinner tables, on lounge and conference floors listening to dialogs about gender equality and the historical backdrop of the crusade from the textile workers who dissented against frightful conditions and child labour.

Eras before us have contended hard for the rights we enjoy today. These points of reference can once in a while veil the long road ahead. Regardless we require change: in the home, in work environments, in our neighborhoods, around the boardroom table and the Cabinet table. Regardless we require pay equity. Youngsters model their conduct on their caregivers. Chloe Shorten | Passionate advocate for equality. Chloe Shorten.
