​​To procreate or not to procreate: that is the question. The choice, in itself, is a big conversation in society, and often something that is highly judged. Even the relationships we have with our own parents are expected to fit a norm that doesn't actually exist. The Keeping It Under Wraps anthology series provides a safe space to change the narrative, to speak openly about individual experiences, and in the end to understand that while each experience is different, we are not so different from each other. Let's keep talking. This anthology includes personal essays from international authors on topics such as: fostering, baby loss, elder care, estrangement, childbirth, teenage pregnancy, childlessness, infertility, mental health, neurodiversity, disability, child abuse, diversity, LGBTQIA+ families, and other parenting issues.
