Family By Choice eBook Rachel Hope Reviews
This book is truly eye-opening. If you are looking for the courage to start an unconventional family, this author has some inspiring advice.
Family By Choice was easy to read, and full of advice on what to do before and during a partnered parenting relationship. I found the parenting contract information very insightful. For business I've set up a corporation, and I've set up a partnership, doing it well saved everone lots of legal headaches because we all knew what the structure, responsibilities, and expectations are going to be before getting into those companies. I didn't think about a contract for a parenting relationship the same way untill I read this book. Of the many things this book covers, the need for a contract between both parent partners is something not to forget to do, and this book really covers that in depth, as well many other important things to consider before you start the process.
I'm not a parent, by choice. You really have to want to be a parent with all your heart to take on such a journey, and I never had that burning desire. If I knew in my 20s what I know now, then perhaps in my 30s, I'd be more serious about finding a life parter to have children with, and if I didn't find that special man, then co-parenting would probably be a desirable option for me, b/c I don't think I would want to do it solo. This book is a great guide to what it takes, how to go about it, what to consider (things I never even thought of) red flags and what to avoid and more. For someone who's considering this path - this would be a good source of information, and guide and eye opener of sorts. I've already recommended it to two friends who are considering having a family by choice. I don't think this option is for everyone, neither is marriage, but I do hope that ANYONE who brings a child into this world, or adopts a child, does so consciously and mindfully. Too many children don't receive the love, support, and warm homes they need. Good luck to all parents out there, I take my hate off to you and the work you do in raising your children.
This is a valuable book for all family building relationships. For finding a parenting partner and building a custom family, this book is essential. It is straight to the point and loaded with the information you need at every stage of the process.
As a single, gay parent (by choice), I found the author -- and a surprising number of the single (gay and straight) unmarried people who have procreated -- to be narcissistic. OK. There is some decent advice to people who might be considering becoming an unmarried co-parent, but this book seems to portray that new trend as being a noble endeavor and contribution to society. There is a huge overpopulation problem, and overcrowded, underfunded schools in the U.S. ... while there are thousands upon thousands of children in foster care who would do anything for loving homes. Why not co-parent a child in desperate need of a home rather than encourage people to contribute to the serious societal dilemma of overpopulation? I adopted that way, and it's neither a difficult process (yes, you do have to pass a home study, which might have been a good thing for some people I know!) nor an unfulfilling relationship (I can't imagine the bond I have with my son as being any less powerful than one I might have had with a biological child ... and even my very Waspy family has come to love him as their own!). We both have a great life that neither of us would otherwise have had. The author cites gay co-parents as being sustainable. Sure, it can be. ... but I would say that we are free to be free of the ego of married couples that often drives the desire to procreate. It sounds like the author has welcomed unfortunate children into her home -- why not adopt one or two of them, rather than create not one but two new souls? It's hard not to see the ego in that. The author claims that she and her platonic co-parent are "free of the romantic expectations that so often reduce families to broken parts destined for the scrap heap." Huh? I'm not exactly sure how romantic "expectations" reduce families (children) to "scrap heaps", but there is nothing wrong with romantic love and exposing a child to that type of relationship, which is often such a wonderful part of the human experience. In fact, one of the most significant questions I get from my son is about romantic love, mostly why I don't have it (!), despite having a large number of supportive family and friends, some of whom are involved in my son's life. I can't share a model of that particular aspect of life for him; and, at 16, he now says that he probably won't get married, and will adopt a child. He'll probably change his mind about marriage, at least (he's too into girls!), but still I learned early into the process of parenting that kids become not who we tell them or want them to be, but often very much like who we are ... and this is especially true with single parents. (Although the author frames the material as being about "co-parenting", it is obvious that she views herself as the "primary parent", and I would guess that in most cases of platonic co-parenting, and certainly in the cases I know, that it is not exactly a 50/50 arrangement.) So sure, straight romantically-involved couples break up. So do gay marriages. So do friends. I find it absurd to assert that living a romance-free life somehow ensures the stability of platonic co-parenting. What about when one of them meets a romantic partner? Is he or she supposed to remain part of the family unit, or, in the author's case, living next door? In any case, we would hope that the establishment of any type of family is "by choice", so the title fits. But is it in any way the better (or even the right) choice?
I saw Ms. Hope on a Television interview where I found her perceptions on the way cultural bias warp the familial structure made a lot of sense so I had to get her book. Once it arrived, I burned through the text and put the book down feeling as if I had a wider aperture of vision on what I’d been struggling with in my own life’s challenges. I feel not so alone anymore, having found through this books ability to put to words what I had been trying to get my mind around for far too long. I’m inspired to make some changes.
