Well maybe men should grow up and make us want to get married and start popping out babies before we turn 30?

I didn’t say it was fair.
But she’s not wrong about biology.

So does that mean that Brunch Granny is PRO brunch for those of us in our 50s past child bearing years?

Do whatever you want after menopause. But being a layabout day drunk on weekends while you're still a gorgeous 20-something is a fool's errand.

Are those my only options? a) layabout day drunk or b) move back to my hometown so I can marry directly after college so my parents can be young grandparents? It's so hard to decide.

I think the argument was originally in reference to not being able to afford child care. If you moved away from all of your family support system (ex. free childcare) and you're still too broke 5 and 10 years after college to afford kids and childcare, maybe it's time to admit you were bamboozled.

Why are you presuming that everyone's family is ready to do free child care for you? If you're in your 20s when you have kids, and your parents were also in their 20s when they had kids, that means they're in their 40s now - do you think most 40-somethings are in a position to retire so they can give free babysitting to their grandkids?

You live in a bizarre fantasy world, and frankly one that sounds a lot less fun than SATC ever was.

It's more about your posture moving forward. Instead of admitting your were bamboozled, made mistakes and squandered years of your life, you double down and encourage other young women to follow in your lonely, regretful, and unfulfilled rootless footsteps, as if you seek to create more victims to join you.

Omg. I can’t even imagine moving back to my hometown. I’d choose to never have kids if that was my only option for having kids.

Ha +1

Sometimes I feel bummed about how my life has turned out, and then I remember that I got out of my sad, depressing hometown, and then I feel great. Things could be so much worse!

Boast about big city living, blow money and time on hip dinners and brunches, wanderlust traveling as if they're a perpetual college sophomore, and a posh apartment with all the accoutrements. But then whine they couldn't possibly have children when they're more than old enough to do so because they can't afford a baby sitter. Wait, I thought you moved away from family for a great big city career? But the career i.) doesn't provide free on-site child care and/or ii.) doesn't pay you enough to afford it? Sounds like you might as well have started a career closer to family, so they could help with childcare. But that was too boring, right. You wanted what Carrie Bradshaw had. Lean in, sweetie.
