    I used to put my date of birth on my CV. When I took it off, the number of call-backs I got doubled.
    So clearly being a woman in my early 30s was counting against me. I'll leave people to ponder why that might be.

    Stigmas exist and I am not going to give ignorant people the chance to discriminate against me.
    Employers cannot ask if you have mental or physical disabilities, and therefore you do not have to tell them during the interview process.

    With regards to educating our children; yes we should tell them, in an age-appropriate way, about these issues.
