[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think marrying late is a DC phenomena.  I feel bad for people in their 40’s who have young children.  It’s a great feeling to have an empty nest before you even hit 50.[/quote]

Great point.

It's also tons of being able to keep up with my teenage kids as we shoot hoops or do anything athletic.  Both kids will be out of the house before I turn 47.

Wouldn't change it AT ALL.

Sure, missed out on some happy hours and trips in our late 20s and 30s.  But the pay-off in the 40s was totally worth it[/quote]
Plenty of us are loving and excelling at “keeping up with” our younger kids in our 40’s, so get over yourselves. You are not special or better at life because you got married and had kids young. These things happen for people at different times due to various life circumstances, including luck, so don’t be so smug. If anything I have noticed that people in their 40s with young kids seem much younger than people their same age who are empty nesters. The kids are keeping them young I guess. [/quote]

Relax.  PP was clearly talking about keeping up with their teen kids in athletics.

Its way different to play one-on-one basketball with a 15 years old when you're 41 compared to when your 55.[/quote]
