Our footballers will now wear them, but is there too much pressure to wear a poppy?

Is wearing a poppy is the ultimate gesture of remembrance? Or is it better to make an anti-war statement by not wearing one? And do we have too many single parents in Scotland?

Should we be worried about the number of single parent families in Scotland?

Kaye asks...is Scotland's statistic of 22% of single parent households something we should be worried about, or simply a reflection of a changing society where the traditional composition of the nuclear family is no longer relevant, or even important?
Are we all a bit guilty of stereotyping single parenthood as being a "bad" thing, or does our personal experience of single parenting tell us a very different story from negative headlines? What is it really like being a single parent in modern Scotland?
