Go for it ... Children are G-d's gift and we need more intelligent kids that are planned ...

But I do want children and I know that I can't wait forever. I've considered artificial insemination as well and even talked to my doctor about it and taken the required medical tests. I've decided to give it a few more years but its definitely an option for me. Nice to know I'm not alone! |
I am young (under 30) and not ready to have children (well, until I get my PhD, at least) ...
However, in my opinion, as long as your health is okay, you can be an 'older' mom and still keep up with your kids,
and you bring so much more experience to the table ...
there are good points to either side ..
my sister had her kids young but she never bot the chance to travel and see the world ...
and b/c they were so young, the marriage fell apart ... **sigh**
soooooooo, as they say, life is like a box of chocolates ...
you never really know what you are going to get ..
and Tony Randall was 77, when his child was born ...
his wife was 50 years younger than he was.
Randall's child was 7 years old when Tony Randall died.
