[quote=Anonymous]I don't know, I think it's not very productive to play the coulda, woulda, shoulda game. My parents were in their 20s when they had me, but I was raised old school. Surely I am not the only person here whose parents didn't run around with them like overgrown children? Hell no, my parents would send me outside in the morning and tell me to go play and come back for dinner. Great childhood, played with friends in the woods, treehouse, the whole nine yards. Guess you can't do that today, the world being what it is. My mom died at 50, had she lived long enough for a painful decline, who knows when it would have happened or when. You just cannot predict what life throws at you. Not to mention, families used to be a lot larger, so maybe first baby was born at 21, but last baby was often born when mom was late 30s/early 40s. Not at all unusual back then. [/quote]
