[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. As a younger mom, I am appalled how many of you are judging us. I was under the impression the older the wiser, no? Instead some of you sit here and try to decipher how people actually could do this? Unbelievable. I am sure other moms must talk about me then. Nice to know I am being judged on my age. I didnt want to be in my 60's when my kid graduates and goes to college. I wanted to have kids instead of racking up selfish debt in my 20's.  I wanted to retire and not still have kids living at home or supporting in college. I want to have an empty nest and travel/live a new life with my husband before I need a cane. I wanted to be a fun healthy mom and a fun and healthy grand mom. So go ahead and judge me. I don't care. I settled down quick and didn't make a ton of stupid mistakes in my twenties. We started saving right after college and here we are.  [/quote]

The only judging I see here is you and the PP who felt it necessary to point out that some older parents may not live to be grandparents.[/quote]

That was not mentioned at all in the previous post. Must have hit a funny bone. [/quote]

[i]2:11: I am 39 with my daughter in 7th grade. We have paid tuition since 3rd. I love being a young mom. Never wanted to wait to have kids. I am not intimidated by the oldies in her class. Some look like grandparents. Half won't be alive to actually be grandparents. [/i]

Perhaps I should've used "a PP," not "the PP" for greater clarity (for the more literal minded).  [/quote]
