When do you (or do you) want children?

PocketMouse [Edit] [Delete] 15:35, 28 January '08

See, I always figured I'd never want to have a first child any later than probably 26. I have a weird thing about old parents. They scare me. I'd no way want to be one. I'd rather be a financially unstable parent than an old parent, so I figure.

But now most people I know and hang out with are 23-26 kind of age and they all seem young. Really young. Like, basically no older than me, and the idea of them having babies is weird and stuff. But having children at or over the age of 30 seems really, really strange to me. It's old. Really old. Why does it go from really young to really old all of a sudden? Even if you take the end of the former, so 27 - that only leaves you two years to have children before you get to to 30. And if you want more than one, that could be problematic. And even that is getting on a bit anyhow.

I should probably stop future-thinking so much. So children and stuff? Yeah?
