This week, the Fischer Williams family - sisters Jenifer, 85 and Judith, 82 and Jenifer's daughter Joanna, 57 - discuss the familial and romantic compromises they made to pursue academic achievement.

Jenifer allowed her daughter to be raised by a nanny to advance her civil service career and led an uninhibited private life. Joanna rejected her mother's values by marrying at the age of 19, but has subsequently come out as a lesbian and given birth to a son.

The three women openly discuss these, and other family issues, for the first time.
