In this series, we explore the choice to become a parent. From the history of the traditional family to childfree communities, solo motherhood and fertility, we look at the choices women are making in 2026.
In this episode, Aoife looks at where the expectation to have children comes from. Why has motherhood traditionally been seen as such an important part of a woman's life, and are those attitudes beginning to change?
Aoife speaks to UCC Sociology Lecturer Joan Cronin.
