Periagoge
Scenario

When couples avoid the deeper conversations about starting a family

My partner and I keep talking about having kids but we never actually talk about it — like we say we want them someday but we've never discussed what kind of parents we'd want to be or what we'd do if we can't have them or how we'd handle the money or any of the real stuff. Time keeps passing and I'm realizing we might want completely different things.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The fantasy of shared dreams can become a substitute for the hard work of building them together.
