👶 at what age do you want kids (if you want them)👶?

Question

if you already have some, at what age did you have your first? for me i think at earliest late 20s, but ideally more like later early 30s-mid 30s

Unsure if I want them, since I don't know if I want to subject someone to the cruel place I expect the world to become. I do have some experience in making those kinds of decisions so I know I'd make for a good father, but I'm also not fully ready yet. So perhaps in 5 years if me and my future girl decide to? I'd at minimum want to be with her for multiple years and certain we make good parents that won't leave each other, and I'd also want some guarantees the world won't turn into a nightmare before i'd willingly have a child. But if an accident were to happen or if she already brought a child in to the relationship i'd take my responsibility.

My advice for men is to not have kids with any woman past 35 unless you want them to be likely to have learning disabilities. No matter how many lies people try to tell you about the FEW exceptions, the majority will have learning disabilities if the woman is past 35. Also, if either person has a past of drugs they greatly increase the chances of their offspring having learning disabilities, regardless of how many years ago they stopped using those substances.

Since I don't think we would be able to afford one right now. 35-39. But ideally right now to 34 would be more ideal.

I know each pregnancy is going to be high risk and scary at 35-39, but that's the risk I'm willing to take for them to grow up in a financially secure environment vs one that is unstable.

Ideally at 30-32, but I’m approaching 30 and I’m not mentally or financially ready to raise a kid just yet…

My first child was born when I was 37 (unplanned). I think you do it when you feel ready (although no one can ever be fully prepared for the challenges of parenting before actually doing it), including financially. I now have four kids.

I’m currently 25 and it really depends on when I meet my person and where we are financially. Ideally 28 or so but I’m still single so it’ll likely be later

Drew-1990 · Answer

I wish I already was married with kids but I'm still single so not yet. If I had a perfect life I would have been married 21-22 and had kids 25-26

I gave birth to our first child (boy) at 26 and our second child (girl) at 29.

I think in general the younger the better. You're NEVER really prepared for kids so it doesn't make much difference to wait. Other than you'll be older so you'll be more tired. Ask most older couples and they'll tell you, "no freaking way we'd have kids now".😆

If I have kids, I would like them to be born while I'm in my 30's. I don't want to give birth when I'm 40 or 41 years old.

NathanDavis · Answer

I'm ready... although... never had them, never tried for them... so who knows if I were sterile or not, lol

I had my 4th kid when I was 29. I didn't want to be old and have kids in my house. I got to play on the same sports teams as my kids when they turned 18. It's way more fun to do stuff with them as adults
