[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]While I wouldn't trade my life for anything, I would *love* to have had my kids 5 years earlier. I had them at almost-36 and just-turned-39. Being an empty nester by my early 50's would be incredibly.

Further, I'm totally envious of my SIL, who had her first at 18, and two more by age 24. Now, at 39, she has one in college and two in high school. Obviously, the teen mom part is not ideal, but... it certainly has its benefits![/quote]

I agree. I am a poster above and I forgot to mention that because of the age difference with my kids we are very close. I think it makes a huge difference in parent-child relations if you are 20 years or 40 years apart with your child. [/quote]

I agree. My mom is 20years older than me. I'm 40, she's 60 and my kids are tweens. She's been a huge part of our lives and is incredibly physically fit. I would not be a bit suprised if she lives to meet her great grandkids. She takes my kids to her summer house in Maine from mid July to the mid August and they get to have the quintessential summers in coastal Maine hiking in Acadia, eating lobster rolls and digging up clams. Since she's only 60 and fit she has a lot of energy to keep up.

At this point, my mom is like a great friend. We travel together, meet for happy hour and talk on the phone almost every day. We dont have a big generational gap.[/quote]

So the women in your family are not highly formally educated and don't tend to have careers? [/quote]

Huh????
