You sound really ignorant and un informed. You posted reasons for delayed childbirth -all negative- you forgot a whole other host of reasons, which is that people want to further their education and or career, they want to travel and do things in their 20s before settling down and having children. You should get out more. I suspect you are the brunch granny poster who thinks sex and the city ruined a generation of women. |
27 is a perfectly fine age to have a second baby! |
Gotta love posters like you pp! If you don't care than don't post. By posting you care... |
Yes, I’m the OP and think it’s great. That’s why I posted. I am happy for her! |
You can further your career, sure, but for someone who is independently wealthy and in a non traditional career, like this woman, that's a non issue. Stop Trying to make fetch happen Gretchen. Most people who wait to have kids (annd plan to continue working) is so that they can afford better child care. Careers (at least good ones) are not more forgiving or flexible the older or more established you are. The majority of very well educated women just get mommy tracked or quit anyway, so why even bother! |
She has youth, money and a spouse so why not get it done before 20's end? |
Richie or wealthy young woman like her aren't some struggling students who haven't done things or not seen places or need a career or money. Everyone doesn't have to wait till infertility years to have kids. |
She literally has nothing else to do? She's done her slutty years as the town bicycle, she has loads of cash, and not much of a career to speak of. This is perfect timing, she should knock them out as fast and young as possible. Good for her! |
| They will likely do divorced in five years and these kids will just shuttle between nannies. They are both Nepo babies who’ve never had to work a day in their life. |
OP here. I agree. She can also have room to have 3-4 now too if she wants. I like the idea of being younger when your kids are 18+. I had my first at 31 and sometimes I do wish I had been younger. It’s more time with your kids before you pass. |
Again, it doesn't matter for these people. Divorce is common, most likely there are pre-nups involved, and basically a non-issue. Life will continue on as is. And for what it's worth, if they do divorce, it will probably be less problematic than the divorces I'm seeing in my peer group now - couples are in their 40s, married for 10-15 years, young kids, and divorce is a HUGE financial hit. That reality is very different from the divorce reality of someone young and rich. |
I guess… Still depressing. The goal for me is to be walking hand-in-hand on a beach somewhere with my spouse in our 70s and that person be the same person who I raised kids with. I realize that’s not always possible and it’s not even everyone’s goal. I wish them the best, but odds are against them. |
| Wasn't there a rumor somewhere that he was cheating on her so I just assumed she got pregnant to prove how happy they are or so she can collect more child support later. Isn't she having twins this time around? |
But why did you say she's 'only' 27? And I don't remember reading any positive like..'isn't that wonderful' |
Did you read the rest of my post? I said she’s so gorgeous and I love her style and so glad she’s not with that loser, Scott. That’s very positive! I don’t know why you’re fixated on “she’s only 27” as if that’s a negative. It wasn’t. Sorry you interpreted it that way. I think it’s great and it means she will be done earlier. |
