More women seem to be embracing the childfree life.
What’s your experiences? Plus points ? Negatives? Those of you 50/60+ are you pleased with your decision?
I think it’s good more options of spoken about so women can feel like it’s a choice.

"Incidentally, my aunt works with the elderly and says it's very common to be talking to a persons niece or nephew rather than own child."

Good points made Tiger but I also work with the elderly and lots of residents only have nieces and nephews that are involved but not because those residents don't have children. Its the nieces and nephews that may be closer geographically, emotionally and genuinely care. Many children for whatever reason are not involved in their parents care. It's a very complex situation especially when children can make decisions from afar and leave other family members that are doing the care to make those decisions work for the resident.
