[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't want to breed with someone that old. Big likelihood the baby would have issues. Lots of studies document issues caused by advanced paternal age. Having said that, I doubt a 47 year old man wants kids anyway. He might not even want a wife. If he's never married, chances are he enjoys being on his own. [/quote] +2 I'm 34. My max is 39 and 40 is really pushing it. I agree advanced parternal age is partially the reason i don't date anyone in the 40's plus the generational difference. I want to go out to a bar or lounge and he probably wants stay home all day and do nothing. I want kids with a young man around my age and not someone closer to retirement. [/quote] Honey ,you're 34 ,(only 6 years from 40) you aren't that young yourself. Instead of drinking your time away at the lounge you might want to settle down with one of your young men and have the kids you want.[/quote] Go away misogynist troll. No one cares what you have to say. Run along [/quote] Eh, she's not wrong. You're advanced maternal age at 35. Thirty-five. [/quote] Nope, 40, actually. http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2013/07/how-long-can-you-wait-to-have-a-baby/309374/[/quote] Wrong. I had my first at 29, my second at 32, and my third at 35, and my fourth at 38. I was coded AMA at 35. 35 is AMA. And there was an excellent story several years ago about how women are being fooled into believing you can hold off on having a baby until your 40s...but it's not true. You don't realize how many couples require medical intervention to have a baby in their mid to late 30s and certainly 40s. [/quote] Don't try to help her. She wants to spend her time drinking in lounges. Let her be 43 on her 9th round of IVF wondering where she went wrong.[/quote] You sound hilariously angry. Did you have a hard time getting pregnant or something? Sucks to suck. [/quote] No I didn't fritter away my fertility in my 30s still partying like I was 21. I knew I wanted marriage and a family so I made those things happen before 34. I do have a number of female friends who bought into the 40 is the new 20 narrative and are now either childless or struggling majorly with infertility, buy ymmv.[/quote] Ohhhhhh. So you're bitter because you got knocked up young and didn't get to truly lead your life. And it pisses you off that all the recent studies say that women's fertility doesn't really go into decline until 40. I get it now. I would be upset too. [/quote] Traveled to 6 of 7 continents extensively, studied abroad, had several fun relationships, advanced degree and solid career by 27, married by 30 , kids done by 34. Still travelling, havinf fun, and enjoying my career and my kids will be out of the housr by my 40s when you'll be knee deep in diapers. But you enjoy your drinks at the lounge. :wink: [/quote] Not PP, but you still sound like a judgmental B. So... Congrats?[/quote] +1 No wonder she's so obsessed with "lounges" [/quote] She's made her point and it sure sounds like she's happy with her life. The truth can sometimes be inconvenient. And please stop it with the "sucks suck" bit - it's very childish and doesn't demonstrate the maturity I think you want to portray here, IMO.[/quote]
