[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m Gen x. 47. Had first kid at 35. Most of my first kid’s friends are gen x, but most of my second kid’s friends are millennials. Some are just turning 40, and I have almost nothing in common with them besides kids. They are doctors and lawyers. When I was growing up, it was very rare for women to be doctors. I am so proud of my mom friends who are doctors! [/quote] I’m 47 with an 8 year old - so younger GenX, and know numerous GenX women who are doctors, lawyers etc. In my antedata, it’s more common for the older moms to be highly educated professionals. I’d be the discrepancy between our experiences is mostly due to self-selection and who is able to afford certain neighborhoods at different points in their careers, rather than anything statistically significant. Of the younger GenXers I know, I had my first kid later than a lot of them, but there are a few of us “old moms” of young kids out there. [/quote]
