When is the best time to have kids?

submitted by 8thmonitor from self.AskSaidIt

Early 20s? Mid 20s? Late 20s/Early 30s?

I think getting a college education in a high-IQ field, such as medicine, is very important. It helps the average person in increasing their household income, providing them with more financial resources to raise multiple children.

I am skeptical about having children before completing a college education. I am also skeptical of individuals having children in their late 20s and early 30s, as those pregnancies often result in children with numerous physical and mental issues.

In my opinion, the best time to have children is in the mid 20s. The only issue seems to be that people must hope that their relationship does not end in a breakup after spending years. Late 20s or early 30s is still acceptable.

What do others think?

If you are intelligent and lucky enough to be able to pay for college, while dating, find a good woman who is ready to settle down with you, then get a good paying job right out of college, get married and have kids right away. That would be the perfect ideal.

But that is frankly 1 in 100 million.

The exception should not dictate the rules for the majority. For most people I would recomend having kids as early as possible. It does not get easier, the problems simply change.

For women I would recomend going for the soon to graduate, or just graduated bachelor and starting a family as soon as you are out of highschool. Having kids is far more valuable to you and to society than you having a job.

Frankly the feminist movement that brainwashed women into chasing masculin goals is the worst thing to ever happen to human society.

All depends on the woman. The time to have them is way less important than who you have them with.

In today's "swipe right to fill out an application for my pussy" mentality, the odds are against you if you're a man who wants to provide for other people.

9 months after you had sex.

Doctors... high IQ.... hahahaha

The last 40+ years have been one blunder after another in their field. They're just bitch boys of the pharmaceutical industry.

Early 20s or even younger I'd say, the older people are when they have children the less healthier those children tend to be. Our generic material degrades with age. It's better to struggle financially with healthy kids than to be well off and have suboptimal, sickly offspring.

25 to 35. Whenever the stars line up and you end up with a solid partner. Single parenting sucks ass.

Your 20s. Statistically speaking, your 20s present an optimal window when your chances of conceiving and nurturing a healthy pregnancy are at their peak. Women egg reserve gradually diminishes by 35–37.

You will never be ready. Have sex with your wife all the time without any prophylactics or birth control, and take the blessings as they come.

Biologically, women have the best outcomes before late twenties. But plenty of women have healthy children later in life. I think it’s more important to be able to give a child a healthy home life which means some semblance of financial security and parents with emotional maturity.

a woman in her late teens should get with a man who is older and can provide

All females hit the 30 wall. All of them. Might as well wait until you start getting old and ugly. 30's.

For a man, the best age today is late 20's. Best balance between physical, mental and spiritual well-being. Having kids at your peak is great. You will fully form your brain by the time you are a father, just in time.

For a woman, early 20s, but mid-20s is still good. Late 20s is pushing it, but if its a marriage that quickly leads to children, its not that bad.

Perhaps more important to being the right age to marry is also the place. Don't marry in America.

Your 20s. If you want to start a family, your best chance of getting pregnant and keeping the baby healthy is in your twenties. After the age of 35–37, a woman's egg free games reserve begins to dwindle.
