Best and Worst: What's happening in your world?

Welcome to Best and Worst (And everything in between). If you haven’t played before, here’s how to do it.

Friday is when we gather together all of our fabulous readers for a chat, armed with cups of tea and biscuits (no, not an Iced Vovo Kevin Rudd. A good biscuit – one covered in chocolate).

It’s a chance for you to give some advice, to get some advice, to tell each other what’s on your mind and what your plans are for the glorious weekend that awaits.

You can also ask questions of the Mia and the Mamamia Team and let us know if there was a particular post this week you loved and tell us if there’s an issue you’re burning to know more about.

Let’s get started.

Our best? Science. Because this week, science did a very cool things and stopped some bad guys. This week, science was basically Batman. So we’re sending science a high five, some extra Christmas presents and a whole lot of love for this little invention, that may well stop date rape FOREVER.

Runner up for best? This little guy. This little guy RIGHT HERE. Because this is Christmas spirit to the Nth degree.

Our worst for this week was the tragic story shared with us by Beth Cockroft, about the death of her 6 week old son Malakai from whooping cough. It was a death that should never have happened and shows again just how vigilant we all need to be when it comes to vaccines, awareness and booster shots. The world is not yet free of these diseases but it should be.
