Mothers Of School-Age Children - Mental Load & School Admin

As a mother, do you feel like you're taking most of the mental burden of looking after your children? Is it up to you to remember things like paying for your child's football club, making sure they have their pencil case ready for school and getting them presents to give to their friends & grandparents for bdays & Xmas? Are you the parent in all the school WhatsApp chats? Are you in charge of all the calendar planning, too - remembering when your child is at their friends' houses after school, when they have doctors appointments, when their school concerts are, when the payment deadlines for school trips are? Is mental load something you've really noticed you're carrying in your household? If so, I'd love to speak to you for an article for the BBC News website - my email is [email redacted] Thanks very much!
