You're among the youngest GenXers. MOST of us are empty nesters. You're an outlier.

I'm 54 and I have a 23 yo and a 21 yo. The 23 yo is launched. The 21 yo is a junior at VT. I'm an empty nester.

Just because you were a grannymommy doesn't make you typical. [/quote]

DP here. I’m a young Gen Xer (1980) and hardly a “grannymommy” (what a stupid word!) I had my kids at 28 and 31 and they are now 17 and 14. Non of my Gen X friends are empty nesters. Work on your math. [/quote]
I was 36 and 38 when I had my kids. I guess, at 54 with an 18 and 15yo, I'm a grandmommy. A benefit of being an older mom is that I grew out of the judgmental bich phase, unlike the original pp, who is a lousy person.[/quote]

+1 55 with a 17 and 20 year old. Benefit for us was being married at 28 (7 years before we decided to have kids) so we traveled all around the world together, lived abroad while making serious $$$$$. A two income healthy start for 7-years gave us such a financial head start by the time the kids came along already had one house paid off and zero FOMO since we also partied and did everything possible those 7 years.
