[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had kids with a big age-spread. Much easier when I was older. So much more confident in my decisions, more calm in dealing with things that came up with babies/toddlers/kids. [/quote]

You had also patented other children for years when you were parenting your younger children. Most people are more confident as they parent more. It probably has more to do with that than age.

This question is another thinly veiled attempt to make everyone argue about a stupid subject. Number of children, whether and how much to work, breast or bottle, private or public, daycare vs nanny. Who cares? We’re all making the best possible choices that we can based on imperfect circumstances.

I see frazzled older first time moms who are rigid and struggle to relate to their children. I also see this in first time younger moms. Personality and circumstances and the child or children themselves determine the extent to which we struggle or thrive as parents and of course this changes based on all of the above too. [/quote]
