[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] As a biologist, I wish more people understood that fertility peaks in your early 20s. Emphasis on early. However, that is too young for many people to have a stable source of income without depending on a spouse, parents or the government. We should not encourage people to have kids they cannot support. It's a case of biology vs. economics. [/quote] We are often still in graduate or professional school until our 30’s. If we had a system of country or state wide subsidized GOOD childcare and preschool maybe people would consider it. Otherwise it’s imposdible if you wish to continue your education. People in other parts of the country that we know start having them right out of college at age 22 though. Good for them I guess. [/quote]
