  2. Current before-bed read when I don't just collapse into sleep, Christine Overall's "Why Have Children?" (#MITP 2012). I don't always agree with Overall in her other work, but I'm interested to see how she works through the questions here--the question of bringing new creatures into the world really weighs on me some days, looking forward to #feminist discussion of the putative reasons in favour.
