[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They had THREE kids before age 24????

That’s the weirdest thing about this story by far.

Nobody does that in this day and age.

People thought I was young having my first at 27! You’d have thought I was a teenager by their reactions.[/quote]

Oh pipe down.  I had two at 24.  I was happily married, educated and a home owner.  Some of us mature faster I guess. [/quote]

Facts are most highly educated people of a certain socioeconomic level are not having their kids by age 24 anymore.  It's very regional too.  But surely you must know that.  So yes, in DC proper and inner ring more expensive suburbs, a woman is young to have a baby at 27.  It's not about you.  It's called data.[/quote]

This was 20+ years ago...[/quote]

My kids are 17-23 (4 of them) and the same was true 20 years ago.  I had my first at 27 and was by far the youngest of my peers.   With my oldest in particular, I am really always the youngest parent by a good margin.
