[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly it gets a little old hearing people talk about how they needed to live their lives before having a kid at 40. You will likely die before your child is finished needing you, and not really get to have much of an experience with grandchildren. Kinda selfish to keep saying me, me, me, I traveled!! Think it, fine, but no one is impressed. You should be less worried about your energy level than the fact that you will [b]probably miss out on a lot of DC's life, and may saddle the kid with an aging parent while he/she has young children. [/b]Just sayin', save the "I lived, and that's what's important" crap.[/quote]

This is what I am concerned about as well, I am never see my grandchildren and may need to kids to take care of me just when they just start having kids of their own.  In contrast my mom is 59 and is having a blast with her grandkids (7 and 2).  Do I regret the years spent living the life of a jetsetting singleton - not yet, but I may.  We shall she.   At least my two girls will be rich so I guess it was not all for nothing.[/quote]
