Sotomayor

From what I read Sonia had different reasons for not wanting to start a family. Pg. 295 Sonia mentioned about risks of having a baby with her diabetes, but I think that she was not willing to sacrifice her career to have children. Also Sonia stated that it do not make a person less of a woman if she do not have any children. On pg. 298 Sonia stated that she couldn't see herself with a child based on her demanding career. Since a child needs his/her mother, I think Sonia looked at it as neglect to the child if she had a baby with her profession, the long hours of work each day she would not have any time to spend with her child. My opinion is that there were many reasons for Sonia's decision for not wanting to have a child,  I think that in the end it was her decision to make, what is best for her, advancing her career and doing what makes her happy.
