Advice from Miriam Stoppard on the decision to have children or not
Here is Miriam Stoppard giving some advice on the decision whether to have children or not in her blog at the Mirror.
It's fairly sensible advice. The only thing I'd say is that - in my experience coaching women on the issue - is that often, there are fears that need to be addressed when looking at the issue. If it was just a matter - for instance - just of finance, it wouldn't be such a difficult or emotional decision.
And, the big difficulty is, when one partner wants kids - and the other doesn't. How you resolve that can be very tricky - as there is no compromising.
