The Childless by Choice Project

Laura Scott|2013|United States|58 min

"Childless" or "Childfree"? Why are happily committed couples increasingly opting out of parenthood?

Synopsis

Author/Executive Coach, Laura Scott embarks on the “Childless by Choice Project,” a journey of discovery to find out why, in the midst of a Hollywood baby boom, millions of couples in North America are choosing to remain childless. She finds couples who are on the fence or opting out—navigating in a society that presumes parenthood for all and tackling issues as prickly and diverse as gender identity, voluntary sterilization, social isolation, self-determination, and the specter of regret.
