The Panopticon of Motherhood (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A couple of days ago a little girl went missing. She was found 19 hours later by a search and rescue dog, just 1000 feet from her home. This all happened during a game of hide and seek with her siblings in the backyard. Her parents called police right away, and a rescue was sent out.

You Can Have Another Baby, But You Cannot Have The Same Baby Later (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I want children someday, I am just not ready for one right now. We have all heard it before, we have probably even said it ourselves, I know I have. It’s a very reasonable thing to say, and it is also a very normal thing to say and plan. There is nothing wrong with it. There are many circumstances in our lives that just do not allow for a child right at this moment, and I find that planning a child is actually good practice. All of our babies have been planned, so you will never find me hating o
