This question forces us to reckon with what we love and fear most in ourselves, in our relationships, and in the world.    When Gina Rushton considered this decision, the choice was less straightforward than she had assumed. Her search for an answer only uncovered more complexity. How do race, gender and class affect our experiences of pregnancy, birth, and parenthood? How do we address the paradox of creating new life on a planet facing catastrophic climate change? How do we navigate uncompromising workplace cultures and the pitfalls of excessive emotional labour? How does our own childhood impact how we choose to parent, if we do so at all?      Drawing on a depth of knowledge gained through her extraordinary work as an award-winning journalist, as well as her personal experiences, Rushton wrote the book she and others needed to transform the discourse around the parenthood dilemma.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49752595169553,"sku":"NGR9781911648536","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49886469357841,"sku":"GOR013297947","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50905310986513,"sku":"GOR014117064","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1911648535.jpg?v=1750726899"},{"product_id":"parenthood-dilemma-book-gina-rushton-9781662602382","title":"The Parenthood Dilemma","description":"\u003cb\u003eRushton's work is generous, thoughtful, and honest, taking care neither to romanticize nor to disparage the choice to become a parent.\u003cbr\u003e --Jenny Hamilton, \u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e (starred review) \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA bold feminist investigation into the mother of all questions; whether or not to become a parent in these turbulent times. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eShould we become parents?\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003eThis timeless question forces us to reckon with who we are and what we love and fear most in ourselves, in our relationships, and in the world as it is now and as it will be. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhen Gina Rushton admitted she had little time left to make the decision for herself, the magnitude of the choice overwhelmed her.
