Delayed Motherhood: A Case Study
Abstract
“But I still believe that the unexamined life is not worth living…” (Balwin, 1954). Using case-study as a method, allows the researcher the opportunity to analyze an individual’s life in order to make generalizations to cases of the same type (Reinharz, 1992). In this case study, the author interviews a forty-one year woman to discover the pathways that led her to postpone motherhood.
