[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All I can say is: Having a baby at 41 is nothing. Having a 10 year old at 51 and a 16 year old at 57 will knock you over[/quote] I'm 50 and my son is 8. My daughter is 12. I run with my daughter. My husband plays BB with my son. can't say that I'm "knocked over" - still at my college weight, too - And I looked pretty good in my 20s! I think these generalizations are ridiculous and ignorant. We live in a nice home in a fantastic school cluster on 2 acres. I couldn't have given my children this life 20 years ago. Furthermore, you plan (pension, investments, college fund, long-term health, life insurance). And as a teacher, I'm home with my kids all summer. My kids are happy and not entitled. We can raise them well b/c we've been through it all! Don't pretend to speak for everyone - especially if you're not an older parent. [/quote] Trying to sell YOURSELF how great it is? [/quote]
