[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People on this board so blithely say that people can have kids into their 40s. I mean, obviously they can. But it's so, so sad. None of the kids of such people have grandparents (or won't have them for long). And those people won't be involved with their grandchildren in turn. It's a crazy huge cultural shift that no one acknowledges. It's more than just about grandparents, too. You're setting your children up to lose you so young. It's impossibly twisted and I wish people would think twice about having kids so late. But this board is all sunshine and roses, even for 45 yos (!!). [/quote] My mother had me when she was 39. She lived to see me married at 35 and to see her grandchildren, ages 9 and 13, before she died. [/quote] My grandmother is still healthy and active (walks over a mile a day) at age 96.[/quote]
