![]() ![]() Some women did want children and even went to great lengths to get pregnant but infertility issues got in the way. Some women knew from a very early age that they didn’t want kids. In No Kidding, the writers focus on why they don’t have kids, and their reasons are pretty diverse. That’s why as a childfree woman I was delighted to find the book No Kidding: Women Writers on Bypassing Parenthood edited by Emmy award winning writer, producer, actress, stand-up comic and director (and childfree woman) Henriette Mantel. Sure, some childfree women find support groups on Internet message boards and blogs, but for the most part you’re not going to find many books on the topic of women going through life sans kids. ![]() With shows like “19 Kids and Counting” and “Teen Mom” taking up our airwaves, hyper-focus on celebrity baby bumps, and the tiresome “mommy wars,” you might forget there are women who have eschewed baby making. ![]()
