[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]raise an infant.  Feel free to carry the baby but the sleep deprivation is really hard at 50 [/quote]

My sister is doing it - and doing it well.  I'm more worried about the teenage years when my sister is in her mid-late 60s

My teenagers have actually been really easy, I can see an older me handling them quite well.  Infant/toddler years kicked my butt though.  Sleep deprivation is brutal.[/quote]

I think my sister is past the sleep deprivation phase - her daughter is 2. But her daughter is very active.  Sister is 51.  Her husband is 55.[/quote]

They have fairly short attention spans, they need constant supervision, they catch stomach viruses and nasty colds.  One of my kids had croup at that age and had to go to the hospital.

2 is fun and I love that age.  But it is A LOT of work keeping up with and constantly caring for a 2 year old.  If your sister is doing well with that, good for her.  To me teenagers are w-a-y easier than 2.[/quote]
