Biographical note
Jennie Bristow is Senior Lecturer in Sociology at Canterbury Christ Church University, an Associate of the Centre for Parenting Culture Studies, and a writer and commentator on the new 'generation wars'. Her daughter, Emma Gilland is one of the 'Class of 2020', a secondary school student whose exams were cancelled due to the Covid-19 crisis. They live in Faversham, UK.
