A small milestone as a JP
Recently I served my 500th client as a Justice of the Peace.
It is indeed a privilege to be able to help my clients realise their dreams - as diverse as getting admission to school / uni. getting 18+ card, applying for residence visa, sponsoring family to visit NZ, adopting a child,.....the list is endless.
Interestingly, I am seeing clients more regularly now. The first 100 took 399 days, then 281, 243, 209, and the most recent hundred took 193 days.
Thanks to each of my clients who made me part of their dreams.
There is always something to learn from every appointment.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
