[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What do you mean “only” 27?[/quote] Exactly what I wrote. She’s only 27 and already on baby #2. She’s young! [/quote] No, she’s not.[/quote] Really? How so? She’s not even 30 yet. That’s very young in the grand scheme of life. [/quote] In the grand scheme of life, women became moms in their early 20s. Late motherhood is a recent phenomenon. And it’s not like she has any financial reason to wait. Weird take, PP.[/quote] Average age of first time motherhood has been shifting upward. It is now 28.[/quote] The reasons for this are: 1. people can't afford children or are waiting until they make more money/get out of debt 2. they can't find someone to marry/impregnate them or 3. can't get pregnant because they waited too long None of these reasons apply to this person. [/quote] You sound really ignorant and un informed. You posted reasons for delayed childbirth -all negative- you forgot a whole other host of reasons, which is that people want to further their education and or career, they want to travel and do things in their 20s before settling down and having children. You should get out more. I suspect you are the brunch granny poster who thinks sex and the city ruined a generation of women.[/quote] You can further your career, sure, but for someone who is independently wealthy and in a non traditional career, like this woman, that's a non issue. Stop Trying to make fetch happen Gretchen. Most people who wait to have kids (annd plan to continue working) is so that they can afford better child care. Careers (at least good ones) are not more forgiving or flexible the older or more established you are. The majority of very well educated women just get mommy tracked or quit anyway, so why even bother! [/quote]
