Fox television has plans to unveil a new reality show called “Labor Of Love.” It follows professional women in their 30s and 40s who put off children to focus on a career and have thus decided to have a baby on their own whether they can hurry up and find a husband or not.

What’s shocking about this isn’t just the existence of the program but the fact that the folks behind it see nothing wrong with the decision to purposefully create a fatherless child. “It’s a show about empowering a woman who can pursue a decision to have a child to help complete a lifelong dream,” says executive producer Desiree Gruber.
