    I love this poem. It resonates so much with my wife and me. We are childfree. My wife received and continues to be given pity.

    I love that this works both ways – the happily childfree woman may extend her pity to the one budrened with children or the woman with children may pity the one without. Thought-provoking on multiple levels!
