[quote=Anonymous]FWIW I’m the child of parents who had me in their early 40s. It sucked for me growing up and it is even worse now. One parent died when I was still young and the other is now elderly needing a lot of care. I moved away, so taking care of my remaining parent is hard. I also have small children so I’m very stressed out about all of them needing me. Growing up, my friends had younger and active parents and commented about my old parents. Not bullying but incessant questions about my family dynamic. I didn’t like the attention and was somewhat embarrassed. I was lucky to find my partner relatively young. I was able to start a family at a good age and I feel very happy about my life choices in that regard. I wish you luck and, as you can see, it works out for many. Live your life with no regrets.
