ROJAS BETANCUR, Hector Mauricio y HERNANDEZ QUIRAMA, Andrea. Areas of Biographical Justification for the Decision Not to Have Children. Divers.: Perspect. Psicol. [online]. 2021, vol.17, n.2, pp.176-185. Epub 01-Jul-2021. ISSN 1794-9998. https://doi.org/10.15332/22563067.7112.
From biographical routes of adults who have decided not to have children and not to exercise roles of motherhood or fatherhood, justification devices in the context of overpopulation and environmental responsibility are analyzed. A qualitative phenomenological study was carried out with in-depth interviews with adults, residents of different cities in Colombia, who decided not to be mothers or fathers. It is concluded that the decision not to have children is a kind of biographical fracture that transgresses social precepts on reproduction and how the issue of overpopulation and environmental crisis is the best social context for legitimizing decisions of non-reproduction.
