A semi-weekly round-up of articles I liked for child-free folks.

http://imnotkidding.wordpress.com/2008/06/13/picking-up-the-slack/ More evidence that the childfree can use their reliability and great attendance at work to their advantage. Congrats on the promotion!

http://childfreedom.blogspot.com/2008/06/leisurely-life-of-less-laundry.html I agree with childfreedom, I hate doing laundry and my household of three (one roommate and my husband) does about 4 loads a week, and we only do four loads because the guys have so few outfits they have to wash them midweek in tiny little loads.

http://childfreedom.blogspot.com/2008/06/tim-vs-mom.html this article stunned me. And it felt very real. I had a hard childhood, and I am proud that my family and I have reconciled despite our difficulties. But anyone who wants a child because they want someone to love them back, take care of them when their old, and so on, don’t count on it!
