I would imagine that a big concern for some women considering becoming independent parents (or single mothers by choice) would be telling your friends and family about your decision. I wanted to share some candid thoughts and reactions from my own friends and family to hopefully give you an idea of what will spring to your loved ones’ minds. I have known Natalie pretty much from the day she was born, our parents are close friends and we grew up shuttling between each others’ houses. I consider her to be my little sister. Brian is her fiancee and we press ganged him into participating in the episode. We were really lacking the straight white male perspective so he stepped in to provide it for us! I hope you enjoy.
