The Child Question - a podcast by BBC Radio 4

Zoe Strimpel on the difficulty of deciding whether to have, or not have, children.

She describes the 'paralysis of ambivalence'. But this ambivalence is surely, she writes, 'a natural response to the idea of setting in train the most unknowable outcome on earth'.

Producer: Adele Armstrong
