After years of profound and often painful soul-searching,
psychoanalyst Jeanne Safer made the conscious decision not to have
children. She came to terms with a course of action that allowed
her to pursue her life in a way that was right for her. Now, in
this wise, compassionate, and deeply personal book, she provides
expert guidance for every woman who has ever grappled with the
issue of motherhood. In beyond motherhood, Safer and women of all
ages from all over the country eloquently share their experiences
and offer unique insights into what it really feels like to live
this still unconventional life. They describe what factors in their
histories, personalities, and circumstances shaped their decision;
and how they forged their identities as women without being
mothers. They talk with remkable candor about their marriages,
their thoughts about aging without offspring, their legacies, and
the meaning of their lives. Most compelling of all, they
demonstrate how their vitality and passion for life belie any
stereotype of childless women as emotionally barren or incomplete.
This inspiring book goes beyond the immediate issue of whether to
have a child, and offers the essential key to conscious, creative
living for every woman, whether she chooses the path to motherhood
or not.
