I bought this book mainly to read what she has to say about being child free and it was worth it. I share her annoyance and anger at having the smugly married and babied up come up to you and grill you about your procreative choices. And I also realise what a privilege it is for me to have a choice in this matter when the women before me didn't have a say or an option. I am proud to be a free, independent child free woman.
