oh, that's still a reasonable age

Yes it is

I think if you're a woman and you're trying to have kids, as long as you do it before 30 you're fine

Yes i think so too,even at maybe 32 is ok,but past that is pushing it

There has a be kind of a balance. Too late is bad, but I think there's no need to rush it at 18 if not ready.

I was 23 when i had mine

Yes exactly

Modern medicine is also a hell of a thing though, my mom didn't have me until she was 40

Wow

That's... pushing it

But I mean you ended up here, so I guess you turned out fine haha

Having white children is the ultimate form of activism

Hahaha

Granted it was a c-section

Congrats!

Yes it is

My mom was 25 and my dad was 35

Thanks!

See that works,there is 14yrs between hubby and I

ya I think some age gap is good as long as both are adults of course

I feel like age gap doesn't really matter after you're both adults

Of course and it depends on how they connect obviously

I'm 21 and my manager tried to get me to date a 15 year old I worked with

nope nope nope

Oh helllllll no

My wife has had 3 kids inside her 30’s with zero problems. You never know with these things. The risk is low and the reward is so grand.

So true,it is the ultimate reward and each womans body reacts differently

I think if you really wanna do it at that age and you get yourself checked out with a doctor and you're fine you should go for it

I had no problem with mine pregnancy, just bad back labor. But my stepdaughter has had bad High Blood pressure,etc and had ro have c sections with all 3. My daughter n law was natural like me.

My dad's friend actually had his kid when he was 50

Wow

I think both parents being healthy and living healthy is good at decreasing problems. There may be “science” that refutes that, but seems like common sense and my gut feeling.

Feels like that may be pushing it.

I think at that point, even if you're healthy, the problem becomes, do you really want to be 68 when your daughter is 18?

Parenting is gonna be *hard*

It’s eternal glory brother

Exactly!!! @Jacob

President John Tyler’s grandson is still alive. He was the 10th pres

I personally think it's good for men to wait a bit, be established, be able to provide something, etc.
But not *that* long

Yes very much so

That was the norm in western society up until like 100yrs ago
