Sabine wants a child. Michael already has one. A family. A perfectly normal wish and precisely because it is so easy, but not so easy to fulfill today. So what do you do when one partner wants a child and the other one maybe does or in fact doesn't? Split up? What does a child mean for a relationship?

Sabine makes a decision and Michael can finally say what he feels.
