[quote=Anonymous]I am another single mom by choice, with a now 12-year-old. In my opinion, it's a very personal and individual decision -- I found that the issue holding me back from doing it was my worry about who would care for my child if something happened to me. Once i figured that part out, the rest of the logistics and hurdles were manageable. She may find the details overwhelming, or she may have some significant concern she hasn't shared with you (perhaps family/culture?). But as you know, nothing really prepares you for what it's like to be a parent -- that part is a leap into the unknown. It may be helpful just to keep talking with her and provide a sounding board for her decision-making.[/quote]
