Never ask a woman why she does not have a child: it is a question that can hurt

A question that almost all of us have heard: "why don't you have a child? You'd be a good mom!" Even Clio, known to all as Clio Makeup, an Italian youtuber and makeup artist transplanted to New York, announces to her fans that she is pregnant and expecting a baby girl. She recounts her experience and makes an appeal: "Certain questions are personal and can hurt, don't ask a woman why she doesn't have a baby." The development of pregnancy, as seen in this video that illustrates its stages, is a very delicate and important moment in a woman's life.

Clio shares her personal experience: in October 2015 she became pregnant and about two months later she had a miscarriage that marked her. Starting from this painful event, Clio explains how it is not right to ask such a personal question to a woman. .

And we couldn't agree more: unfortunately there are women who want to have children and can't, or simply can't. Women who don't want them because they choose to devote themselves to their family in another way, or women who can't afford to child because they do not have a stable job. Not for this reason they are half women. In 2017 we know well that women have a thousand facets and a thousand ways to fulfill themselves: on a professional and personal level. Unfortunately, however, this is very often forgotten and the question " why don't you have a baby? "is invasive and unnecessary. And, once again, when we talk about women and pregnancy we forget the sensitivity with which such a delicate subject should be treated.

Why do they always ask us the fateful question about children?

Still too often a woman's personal fulfillment seems to be tied only to motherhood. Building a family is certainly an important step in a woman's life, as in a man's life, but it is not the only way to personal fulfillment. Indeed, a family can be made up of two, three, four people ... the important thing is to love each other. A woman has the right to choose the priorities in her life without having to feel judged and without her choices being questioned .

Whoever you are and whatever your choices are, the important thing is that you feel free to be the sole architects of your destiny.
