ryanj1, I really enjoyed reading your review and all the discussion that came about!

I think it is a very interesting topic and one I don't think too much about. I plan on having children in the near future and have never really questioned it. However, I can see for those who do not wish to have children, how much of a struggle it can be when society expects women to have children.

Thanks for a great review on a very interesting topic! :)

Yes, for some motherhood is not a choice one way or the other. This must have been an emotionally draining read at times, but you are able to stand back and point out fair criticisms without letting your personal thoughts take firm precedence.
