Abstract: | The latest Canadian data indicates that 20 percent of births in Canada are to women aged 30 years and over. Postponed parenthood has become an increasing viable option for Canadian couples. This paper reports on a study of 46 couples who delayed their childbearing. It is the first Canadian study of this area of family life. |
