It addresses two main questions: What are the pathways to childlessness, and how do childless individuals flourish? Eschewing two dominant narratives - that the childless are either barren and alone or that they are carefree and selfish - it views childless individuals as complicated human beings with nuanced life stories. The pathways to childlessness, so often labeled simply "choice" and "circumstance," are far more complex and interweaving. This work examines issues including regret, old age, attitudes toward childlessness, the household, and legacy. 000892439 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from home page (viewed on July 18, 2019). 000892439 650_0 $$aChildlessness$$xPsychological aspects. 000892439 650_0 $$aChildlessness$$xSocial aspects. 000892439 650_0 $$aInfertility. 000892439 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9780190918620 000892439 830_0 $$aOxford scholarship online. 000892439 85280 $$bebk$$hOxford Scholarship Online 000892439 85640 $$3Oxford scholarship online$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780190918620.001.0001$$zOnline Access 000892439 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:892439$$pGLOBAL_SET 000892439 980__ $$aEBOOK 000892439 980__ $$aBIB 000892439 982__ $$aEbook 000892439 983__ $$aOnline
