Dear readers, I’m feeling a little brain-dead today, so I’m
sharing these links to articles about being childless.
In this BBC piece, the writer discusses how hard it is for
parents and non-parents to understand each other sometimes. “A Point of View: Can Parents and Non-parents Ever Understand Each Other?”
Then Dear Abby tackles those stupid nosy questions people
are always asking us. You know the kind: Why don’t you have children? Don’t you
like kids? Why don’t you adopt? Etc. Dear Abby: Nosy Questions Hurt Childless Woman
And finally, if we can laugh about this, we’re on our way to
healing. Marion L. Thomas’s new book Living the Empty Carriage Way of Life will have you
nodding your head, saying, “Yes, yes, that’s how it is.”
Happy reading.
