The non-profit organization, Childless By Choice, reports that one in seven married couples in the United States is consciously deciding not to have children.

Through candid interviews and photographs, Families of Two: Interviews with Happily Married Couples Without Children by Choice takes us into the lives of happily married couples without children by choice. It dispels the myths often associated with this choice, helps couples who are deciding whether to have children, and offers insight to friends and family of couples who have chosen or may choose not to have children. Families of Two expands our ways of understanding marriage in today’s society, and gives examples of roadmaps for marriage without children. Families of Two celebrates the many people who are living lives that do not include parenthood, and the many ways to live happily ever after.

Languages : en
Pages : 26
Book Description
Hannah's Two Homes is a work of fiction geared to a pre-K to second grade level. It is a picture book that can be read to a child or, due to its simple sentence structure and vocabulary, might be read by the child who is at a beginning independent reading level. The story represents the thoughts of five-year- old Hannah, who splits her life between her Mom's and Dad's residences and her two sets of half brothers and half sisters. In the book, Hannah is sharing what she might be thinking if her emotions were "given a voice." It can be the springboard from which the reader--parent, grandparent, or teacher--can begin a discussion and show their compassion for the child's unique situation while gaining some valuable insights into their child's perspective. It is a story of hope, coping, optimism, and ultimately, the healing power of love.
