“Does the piece overcome that negativity/reality?”
Yes, I think it does, that’s why I posted it.
I really liked this article, I thought it was very down to earth.
I come from the first generation of women who really could chose whether or not to have children (and still have sex, you know what I mean). Most of my friends did not have kids and I still don’t think they made the right choice, as much as one can say that about another person obviously. I also happened to come from a family with mostly women, most of whom that I knew were not married and did not have children, so I sort of think I saw almost all sides of this issue.
I’m happy to see that my daughter’s generation may be going back to motherhood. I don’t know if that statistics bear that out.
