[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is absolutely a stigma against young parents. Which seems like one of the dumber things, evolutionarily speaking, our species has come up with. It's like some vicious anti-human with incredible influence (Anna Wintour maybe?) started a rumor that "all the cool kids are waiting to have kids..." and it STUCK! And bam, group think amongst those who consider themselves "upper" something (educated, class, income) decided to vilify those who choose to have children while they are young, fertile, and healthy. It's totally ass-backwards. We are Ivy educated, both went to grad school, well employed, and decided to have kids in our late 20s. Our peers treated us like we are some weird Mormon extremists! The confusion, and sometimes disdain, was palpable. [/quote] Anna Wintour has two children and is close to both of them.[/quote]
