Sir, – Reading Jennifer O’Connell’s article “It’s no wonder the average age of new mothers in Ireland is at an all-time high” (Opinion & Analysis, November 4th), about the many pressures experienced by women in our society, what intrigues me is that, given that women make up 50 per cent of our population, give or take, are we ourselves contributing to these pressures? – Yours, etc,
