Every year after 30 the risk of down syndrome and other chromosome disorders goes up by like 90%.

Now I wonder why are these self described "experts" trying to trick women into waiting until they are 35 before having children.

It's also sad for the children who have nothing wrong with them, having elderly parents who are too frail and worn out to run around and play with their children

Even when you're 25 chasing children around takes it out of you, imagine being 40+ and trying to chase after 5 year olds.

Fuck that.

Have kids young or don't have kids.

It's not fair on the kids otherwise.

Money and all that shit is not important. As long as you can keep a child warn clean and fed the most important thing is actually being there for them.
