[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was finished with having 3 kids by 27 (had them at 19, 24, 27). Obviously the one at 19 was an "oopsie", but it's worked out perfectly and can't imagine it any other way at this point. Owned a 5 bedroom house in a nice suburb at 26 and was able to be a SAHM for several years. I have a master's degree, a great job with flexibility, kids active in multiple travel sports that cost me in excess of $50k/yr. So that comment about people being in a lower class when they have kids young is quite laughable. You're probably jealous you didn't have the means to be able to afford a child before 40. Now my friends I went to high school/college with are dealing with diapers and sleepless nights at 40+, and then gonna be dealing with back to school nights and playdates in their 40's-50s, and paying off college in their 60's. F that. I can do whatever I want because my kids are old enough to take care of themselves now and I'm only 40. That's another 40ish years of life I have to enjoy with my kids and do what I please, when I please. [/quote] Oopsie baby takes you out of the running as anyone to take advice from. We loved dealing with infants as actual adults, not teenagers.[/quote] So, because I was 19, I couldn't love/deal with my child? That's one of the most idiotic comments I've ever gotten. I'm sure it was really bad for him as a baby/child having a mom stay at home with him and provide him with everything he wanted and needed. Poor kid. Should've waited 20 years to have him so he could have the exact same life and 20 less years with his mother.[/quote]
