What to do when you want kids and your partner doesn’t – expert advice

YOU could love each other to the ends of the earth, trust each other and be totally committed to the relationship. But there’s no doubt about it – if one of you wants kids and the other doesn’t, it’s a potential dealbreaker.

“My marriage broke up because my husband was younger; he wanted to have kids and I didn’t want to be an old mom,” Sofía (51) said in a recent interview with Spanish newspaper El País.
