The Age of the Child

It's the worst time in the nation's history of reproductive legislation for Katherine, who doesn't want a child, to learn she's pregnant. An overturn of Roe v. Wade has not only criminalized the birth control that would have prevented Katherine's accidental pregnancy, but abortion and most miscarriages are illegal, too.

In this environment, not having a child will be a challenge.

Katherine isn't afraid of a challenge.

It's probably the worst time in the nation's history for reproductive legislation for Millie - well, for someone like Millie - to decide rather suddenly that she wants to be pregnant.

Since the recent implementation of parent licensing, getting pregnant requires approval from the government's Parent Licensing Bureau, and even attempting to cheat the system carries a sentence of imprisonment in an unpleasant facility.

In this environment, a pregnancy for someone like Millie is all but impossible.

Millie doesn't believe in "impossible."
