[quote=Anonymous]I think some folks on here are assuming "young mom" has a negative connotation, and just thinking about teen moms or someone who has kids before attending or graduating college. Like there's a presumption of bad judgment. But I just think of it as a descriptive phrase. I am an "old mom" in that I had kids at 37, so I am raising young kids in my 40s. Sometimes I meet moms with same age kids but they are a decade younger or more. I think of them as "young moms" because while we have our kids in common, we are otherwise in different life phases and sometimes even of different generations. I don't automatically think "young mom" means "too young" anymore than I think "older mom" means "too old." These are just comparative descriptions and at least for me, there is zero judgment attached.[/quote]
