[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Young people’s brains do not fully develop until age 26.  After age 26, they are finally capable of making sound, adult, decisions.

Before that age, our children need our guidance; it’s as simple as that.

I’m not going to apologize for being a good parent.[/quote]

Lol, at 26 I had already finished grad school, had a job and one kid. You can function independently with a prefrontal cortex still developing[/quote]

Are you 80? I know no one who had a baby at that age unless it was an accident from generations subsequent to my grandparents. [/quote]

DP: I had finished grad school at 24, married at 22.  Chose to wait until 29 for a kid.  But There are plenty of people who choose to have kids in their mid to late20s who are only in their 40/50s.  [/quote]

Wise ones do not choose to have children at that age, much less get married. That is too young. [/quote]

Happily married 34+ years, I agree it's not for everyone.  But we were both very mature, responsible adults and obviously knew what we wanted.  Grew up poor, now UHNW by time we were 50, all self made.  I'd say we made the correct choices in life.
