  • Episode 46: Children Under 10 Not Welcome
    Aug 10 2023

    Earlier this year, a restaurant in NJ instituted a new policy to restrict children under 10.  Nettie’s House of Spaghetti in Tinton Falls, NJ implemented this policy in March.  One of my most popular episodes is Episode 3: Should children be allowed in places traditionally marketed to adults. In that episode I talked about kids at spas, breweries and bars.  And the consensus of the childfree community is NO, they should not be in spaces that would be considered adults only.  In this instance it’s a restaurant that previously welcomed all children but changed their policy to restrict children under 10.  Needless to say, parents were not happy.

  • Episode 42: Let's talk about Regret and the Power of Changing Your Mind
    Feb 14 2022

    I'm often asked if I regret not having children.  I don't.  I have made the best decision for myself with the information I had the the time.  But what if I wanted to change my mind?  If I thought it was the best decision for me, I would.  You always have the power of choice and it's your choice to change your mind and live the life you've created for yourself to the fullest.
