[quote=Anonymous]In my social circle (most of us went to elite colleges and professional/grad school), the average age for marriage was around 27-28 and the average age for having our first child was early 30’s. It’s different for everyone. There seemed to be a lot more confidence with the state of the world back then (pre 9/11). Some of us watched our moms struggle with trying to establish careers while juggling motherhood and didn’t want to try doing both at the same time. Many in my cohort including myself were part of that “opt out” generation that left the workforce at some point and then returned when the kids were a little older. This is just one social bubble so I’m definitely not speaking for a lot of people out there. [/quote]
