My dad was 65 when I was born, mom was 38. AMA

r/

I’m 32 now, with 3 kids of my own. Ages 7, 9, and 11.

Having older parents (well, old, not older, in regards to my dad) really made me want my own kids at a younger age.

    Not a question, but as a 32 year old, I envy and would like to emulate your father. My parents were both 25 when they had me. I otoh want to build wealth and marry a younger woman so my kids and family will be set for life. So far I’m nearing 300k (would have been 580 before tariffs) and math checks out that I’ll be a multimillionaire in my 40s and beyond unless the US ceases to exist.

    How old were you if you/ when they died? Interested to hear about your experience with your mother more than your father because I was 38 when my second was born

    What age do you think is “too old” to have a child? Obviously men can have children into their 70s, but ethically, what do you think is the right age to stop having kids?

    Do you have any siblings?

    How did your parents meet? Were they together until they passed? Is there anything that you didn’t get to do as a child because of your parent’s advanced age?

    Do you think 38 is too old to be a mom?
