Here's another article from the U.K. about the growing numbers of educated women choosing not to have kids - pros & cons. It includes a quote from Helen Mirren, one of my favorite CF role models. I want to be like her when I grow up!

That's one of the better articles I've read. Lots of food for thought in there - especially the question of what happens if the life script doesn't work out? You can't find the man, the house, the job, the time? What then? Interesting questions indeed.

I really enjoyed the article, too.

I love Helen Mirren's comments. Good for her. I think I might use her one-liner, "it just isn't something that interests me."

I have the house, guy and job but I still don't want one!

But they shouldn't judge people for doing what is right for them. The world would be a better place if people made better choices for themselves.


Save your own life - don't have kids!
