[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I posted about this on another chain and was flamed. It’s a thing. UMC getting married earlier. [/quote]

I wrote somewhere that I hoped that my kids got married in their twenties and also got flamed. You would have thought that I wanted to give my daughter away as a teen bride.[/quote]

the hubris of the old parent movement is truly astonishing to me. It's like a winning a weird game of Russian roulette. The win is not worth the risk. [/quote]

What are you trying to say?[/quote]

The hubris is the arrogance that you don't have to play by the rules of human biology. You are taking an extreme risk (hence the Russian Roulette reference) in assuming that you will be able to get pregnant whenever it is convenient for you and THEN ALSO not die when your kids are still in their teens/early 20s. Even if you win, and get a perfect outcome on all accounts, why are you even taking the risk to begin with when you don't have to?
