[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]

I’m in my 40’s and no way in hell was I or any of my peers/collegues looking to marry right out of college. [/quote]

DP but I’m also in my 40s and got married right out of college. Been happily married for over 20 years and have two non-coddled teens and a graduate degree. [/quote]
