[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t regret it but some things about it are harder than they would have been if I’d become a mother at a younger age. Much less energy, perimenopause colliding with teen hormones, etc. Plus it’s not always a straight line to post secondary education and independent adulthood, something that didn’t occur to me before. Yes, I’m dumb.[/quote] How old were you when you had them? I was 30 and 32 (so not over 35) and now, at 48, I am starting to deal with perimenopause and they are still teens (older one is leaving for college this year but younger one is still in the thick of high school). I definitely wasn’t ready/able to have children earlier so I would think this would be hard to avoid. [/quote]
