How Fifi the Mommy Rabbit is showing me a thing or two about parenting

is among the country’s most influential media voices. Catch his weekly column here, exclusive to Cape {town} Etc.Fifi had given birth to five little wrinkly babies overnight. My wife Laylaa Abarder swore she heard a loud noise like a scream emanating from the rabbits in the backyard on Friday night and decided that must have been the moment of birth. Laylaa’s maternal side kicked in as she sprang to work – putting on gloves to move the bunny babies onto a fluffy blanket.

I am not happy to report that the animal count in our home now outnumbers humans. There are now 15 pets, all told – including eight rabbits, four cats and three dogs. Somehow, everyone gets along. I’ve been winging it and have come to the conclusion that there is no manual for human parenting. It is a just series of threats and bribes, I’ve discovered! Jokes aside, it is about nurturing and not employing a one-size-fits-all approach. It is hardly scientific either; what you put into the relationship you will get out.

I was refereeing an under-7 football match before the COVID-19 lockdown and had to stop the game because an adult was shouting abuse at one of the young players. I had a quiet word with the gentleman suggesting that he should rather shout encouragement and that if he couldn’t I was going to ask him to leave the grounds.
