[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of the people saying to go for it are still in the little kid phase and haven’t dropped at kid at college in their 60’s yet. [/quote] My grandmother had my aunt(3rd kid) at 47. can’t speak to my grandma‘s experience dropping her off at college but my aunt did ok. She was like an only child though because the age gap was 18 years. My understanding of the situation was that my grandparents were better parents in their late 40s than in their 20s so it’s not all bad. Some people do mellow out and become wiser with age. :) [/quote] Mellowed, or checked out? Can you imagine starting over when your other child is 18???!?[/quote] I do think mellowed is the right word. Next time I talk to my aunt and if I remember I’ll ask her. It was a oops pregnancy and they are Catholic. Personally no - I want a second child but not 18 years later!! May end up with a 4 year age gap if I decide to go for it. [/quote]
