"My partner wants kids and I don’t. Should we break up?" - with Laura Henshaw

The decision to have children is a personal one but if you’re in a relationship, the decision is one that you can’t make on your own. So what do you do if you find yourself in a situation where your partner wants kids but you’re not ready…or you want kids and your partner isn’t ready?

Or what if you want children…but you don’t have anyone to have them with?

In this episode Laura speaks with a KICPOD community member Madi who asked, “what if all the good partners are taken?”

Then Laura sits down with relationship coach Megan Luscombe to find out how she helps couples work through this decision. What happens in a relationship when one partner doesn’t want children and has them? Or when one partner does want children and doesn’t have them? Do couples with different desires have to break up? How do you distinguish your wants from your partners’ within a long term relationship? And if you are single and dating with the intention of finding a relationship…how soon do you bring it up?

Then you share your thoughts on the topic ❤️
