[quote=Anonymous]I went to med school. Would have liked to get married/have kids earlier, but it wasn’t financially feasible. Almost all of my classmates got significant family support (money or grandparent babysitting), which is how they pulled off a wedding and children during residency. My parents and my husbands parents wouldn’t help us financially (ie no money for a nanny or a wedding) because “you chose this path”. Then they complained bitterly that they didn’t have a wedding to plan or grandchildren (I didn’t have kids until 38). On the other hand, we had the wedding we wanted and they don’t meddle in how we raise out kids, which is nice. My guess is that the parents could help push this timeline up a bit if they could provide financial help. In fact, it might actually be a veiled ask for financial support.[/quote]
