they act like you’ll immediately die in two years

don’t even get me started on the people that think having kids in your 30s is too old… like people shouldn’t be having kids under the age of 25 but no one is ready for that conversation at ALL. just because you have kids when you’re a kid yourself doesn’t mean me having kids at 30 is too old.

32

Then you get pregnant at 20 and they tell you that you didn’t live your life 🤨 you really can never win as a woman

my mom had me at 38 i gotta say it’s tough bc im scared she will never meet her grandkids

God FORBID you wait for a time to be financially and emotionally responsible enough to raise a child, no no you should have them right away and raise children to hate you for neglect obviously

Literally I’ll never understand people who say that. Like if we’re gonna go there, imagine having kids in your early 20s before you’re really financially stable and not being able to go out and live your life while your young and discover who you really are??? I’d argue that’s a lot worse lmao

My mom was 41 when she gave birth to my sister. She was 42 when I was in kindergarten. She is a fantastic mom and is so much better than people who had kids ridiculously young. She had no complications with my sister. People need to be realistic.

my parents were 35 when they had me and I turned out alright

Uhh that was my mom lmao. She was 40 when I started school and 43 when my brother started. We celebrated my dad’s 50th when he was still in elementary school lmao

my mom was 39 when she had me, we’re doing just fine lmaoo. people are strange.

3

My dad was 42 when they had me I’m 21 lmaaaoooo

3

My mom had me at 42. Having a kid at 35 doesn't even feel old to me. 💀

3

Yeah my mom was 25 when I was kindergarten- probably would’ve been a lot better if she was 40

3

my dad had me when he was 45 and I’m well into adulthood now and he’s literally still working out of choice 😭

3

my mom had me at 35 and I’ve never felt like my parents were crazy old or anything. Having kids later gives you more time to be young and fun and then when you have the kids you’re more responsible and financially stable.

3

My parents were that age when I was in kindergarten I will assure u that there were still not at all mature.

3

Imagine getting upset that I child is being raised by someone who waited to be prepared and financially stable to give their child a life they deserve, and not a life that was rushed due to peer pressure

I’m 28 with a son in kintergarten. No issues. I’ve been working as a software engineer for the past 6 years so we have plenty of income. Buying a house soon. Also our parents and grandparents help out.
