S6, E2: Reddit Reads, A Childfree Holiday Nightmare
Just in time for the holidays today I am reading a post from the r/childfree community that perfectly captures a childfree holiday nightmare. What starts as a Thanksgiving dinner quickly turns into that all-too-familiar interrogation we all dread having when this poster's aunt starts questioning her choice to no have kids.
In this episode I break down why holiday gatherings are often a breeding ground for intrusive comments, forced opinions, and disrespect of childfree choices. I'll give you some tips on how to navigate these situations without loosing your sanity. As Christmas approaches let this be your reminder that being childfree does not mean you have to be open to debate.
