[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have older parents (dad was 50 when I was born). Don’t do this to a child. I spent my childhood worrying my dad was going to die because of his age-related health issues. Now I’m raising small kids while he is end of life. Do not do it.[/quote] Sooo you would just rather not have been born?[/quote] NP but that’s not a fair question. Obviously pp is just saying they’d rather their parents had had them when younger, not that they wished to never be born at all. OP, I know someone who adopted a baby at age 58 and is a single parent. The kid is now 16 and starting to think about college and the parent is now 74 and starting to think about retirement finally and moving to assisted living in next 5 years. Doesn’t sound at all desirable to me to be that old raising a kid 0-18 OR to BE a kid w a really old single parent either. [/quote]
