[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you new here? They're all 45 year old first time moms. [/quote]

Seriously, DC is like the GrannyMom capital of the world. And no, the alternative is not having kids at 20. Many, many people have kids in their early 30s before the grannies start going crazy about establishing their financial independence pre-kids. [/quote]

I was in grad school in my early 30s, then working, traveling, having fun, making $$$. It's wonderful to have kids later in life. I was able to switch to a good paying job with great work - life balance because of the education and experience that I got pre-kids. Honestly, I feel bad for those moms who had kids early on, work in dead end jobs with no flexibility, never got established, cannot afford a nice spa day, gym, derm appointments, vacations, and have to shop at Sams.

I was in grad school from 22-25 and was making six figures from 25 to 30 when I had my first child (and continued to afterwards). You also don't have to wait until your 30s to go to grad school. Just saying. Have less well-paying job now in my late 30s that is great work-life balance, basically because I was already established by the time I switched out of the rat race. [/quote]
