Description:
Motherhood; yes or no. It’s now a real choice which is changing society.
They’re labelled as selfish, as ‘deliberately barren’, and sometimes as crazy old cat ladies, but increasingly women are choosing to be childfree. Over the next few decades couples without children are set to outnumber those who have them.
Tory Shepherd looks at how women’s freedom to choose motherhood is reshaping their own lives as well as society. **
