[quote=Anonymous]So many unkind people on here! I’m 47 with two kids about to head to college. I’m tired at the moment too! I work full-time in a stressful but gratifying job; I have aging parents, a dog, a husband, and two kids who all rely on me for emotional support—they’re all wonderful but it’s a lot. 40-something is when work, family and middle age just come together in a particularly exhausting way. I don’t think it is much more so for people who had their kids at 40 than those who had them, like me, at 29. Several of my closest friends have same-age kids and are in their 50s. They don’t seem worse off. [/quote]
