[quote=Anonymous]As a child of older parents, it is not easy. That's just a fact. My parents felt great in their 40s, 50s and even 60s, but now in their late 70s, they are struggling and I have yet to have a baby of my own. I never wanted to be an older parent and I am well on my way there. I just pray that I get as much time as possible with my kids as I can. Gosh, at this point I hope I can even have one baby. It makes me very sad though that I couldn't have them as young as my friends. I would give anything to have an 8 or 9 year old right now. I agree with the above poster that says that being an older parent does affect your children. Maybe not right away but down the line it definitely does. Had I known that I would have this many problems conceiving, I wold have started even sooner than we did. Am I more knowledgeable now that I am older, well sure. But I would trade more knowledge for being a younger mom any day.[/quote]
