Whats your favourite urban myth or old wives tale and why?
My favourite old wives tale, infuse 1 chamomile teabag and a teaspoon of fennel seed, in a small saucepan, when it is cool enough it can be given to your babie to reduce bad colic.! therefore reducing your trip to the chemist or dr. I have a daughter and used this regularly when she was a baby, and yes it really does work, I have since passed it on to quite a few new mums…..
Biggest Myth is ‘A Fair Go’ and ‘Equal Access’ regardless of Race, sex, class in the Canberra Magistrates Court where Judges are permitted to abuse the public. Another Myth is Drink Driving is a Crime as Ministers are supported to Drink and Drive for the good they do the community – never mind the same minister voted to remove any responsibility to that of being re-elected. The only Myth I think stands the test of time, is that the rich get richer while killing anyone else for a political ideal. (5000 assults each year with donations to ones fav political party – any compo?
