I am 4/5 through the book. I thought I was about to be enlightened, by being presented with an equal view of those who decided to BE mothers, and those who decided NOT to be. I am dissapointed to find that near reaching the last 1/5 of the book, among about 10 stories of women who have decided to become mothers, only one was of a woman who chose not to. Another bothersome point was the fact the thruogh most of the book, the topic of the economic weight a child brings was not discussed AT ALL. I was impressed that all (or most?) of the featured women were very well off economically. Or, perhaps it is the American work morals that are taken for granted (i.e. willing to spend the other part of life working hard to hold that family).
