The teacher can do much to help her cope widh this phase of chang. It is especially helpful for couples to be interviewed together. Fortunately fertility regulation is not difficult at dhis time and the indications of infertility are increasing steadily. It is important that there be no disruption in sexual relationship through lack of understanding of fertility. And the couple is a couple still.
Infertility is at last established naturally.
Appropriately the woman is still loved for herself, now without her fertility. She is attractive to her husband still and even more so. The flame of first love has become an unquenchable fire at whose hearth many are warmed. We have aH had experiences of helping these wonderful people through temporary difficulties and have ourselves been warmed and comforted. It is good for us as teachers to reflect on the intention of the Creator for human happiness.
