[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it is doable for the right type of personalities.
I worked with two women who had two kids while not yet 30 in NYC. They were both in solid marriages and held professional licensure in our profession. They were not the party hearty types who lit out for drinks with friends. T[b]hey had supportive family nearby and that made the baby thing easier for sure.[/b]
As an older mom, I was jealous of the career path they had in front of them because their kids would be fully out of the house by the time they were 45.
Look, RBG had a baby then went to law school. Helene Kaplan had a family then went to law school and then went onto Skadden Arps. The key is finding the right partner for that journey.
The dating pool is quite large in college and quality candidates shrinks considerably after graduation. [/quote]

Actually I firmly believe that active family support is the key in young marriages with children. That is and has always been what makes the difference in quality of life and longevity of marriage.[/quote]

But notice that it’s not the middle-aged men being lectured about how they must help support their daughters and daughters-in-law financially so that they can have children early. [/quote]
