Title: what do you think is acceptable for getting married and having children
Post by: richard on May 08, 2007, 11:13:13 AM
im 26. now i might want kids at some point in my life, but i dont know what an acceptable age for having them is. obviously i'll never get married but that is besides the point as you dont need to be married to have children. when did you get married or had children?

I think any time beyond 30 is dangerous because of how old you are compared to the kid.  That is not to say I dont plan to wait that long meself....

Remember,"middle age" and quality of living is being extended each decade;if you're 26 now,you may still have a "middle age" quality of life when you are in your seventies.Of course,there is no predicting health issues,and health care costs money.But,in theory,as long as you can produce sperm,you can impregnate a fertile woman.Also,kids always have trouble relating to their parents,whether they are 15 years older or 50 years older.The hard part is being a good parent.

Why don't you think you will ever get married, Richard?  I think you will.

I think a good time to have children is when you are ready to take care of them.  They need a lot of taking care of, especially at first, and I don't think you should have them until you are ready, no matter what age it is.

I can wait as long as I damn well please, if ever, and adopt a kid who's a compensatory age; i.e. I could adopt a ten-year-old when I was forty.  I'm not that into babies anyway; I'd rather take in some kid who's likely to be passed up by other people who DO want babies, and honestly I'd rather take in someone who's verbal and toilet trained.  I know the latter sounds kind of callous, but that's how I feel right now.  Maybe someday it'll be different.

I assumed having children meant growing them and was seperate from adoption.  I am just concerned that the parent may die at an inconvenient time for the childs age, but if you adopt, then there are no worries - if you do it right.

I can't even remember when I got married. I'm guessing around
30. It was such an unimportant event. Never want spawnlets though.

I'd kill the little shits.

I have a daughter and she does not have a sneaky bone in her body.  She will always tell the truth no matter what the consequences, with one exception when she was younger.

Poor kids. Someday, they'll have to learn that lying is important.

Sadly, it's true. There have been a lot of times when life would
be easier if I just gave in and lied (job applications and such).

Plus, withholding the truth is a form of lying, and is almost
a necessity in some circumstances.

like when my youngest got sent to the principle and then she didn't tell us later, when she got home.

Yeah. Cool, he won't be entirely helpless.
Now it comes to learning what things one
can lie about, and get away with - and that's
what parents/teen years are mostly for, I guess.

I kind of fucked that whole part up - but not entirely,
I guess.
