Having kids in your early 20's (38)
Mummy: I'm a single mum, have 2 darling daughters. But i'm actually glad that i had my kids when i was younger, i see all of my mates trying to have kids or trying to start out with little nippers and they're exhausted.

My son was born when I was 23. I wasn't ready for that at all, but I made the best out of it.
Life begins and exists right now. I'm not waiting until I'm 40 to experience awesomeness hahahaha.

you know what, i wasn't ready either....but who ever is, reading 5 million books can never prepare you enough to become a parent...you just got to bite the bullet and get stuck into it.
I'm enjoyin my life with my girls, if i had mr fantastic with me that would be great (to have someone for me) but my point about being 40 is that she will be an adult and there won't be a need for constant parental guidance or babysitting for another word....and i'm free to do as i please, you see where i'm coming from...
anyhow, thanks for posting!.

I was 20yrs. old when my first son was born and 23 when my second/last son was born. Looking back NOW, I can say I really wasn't ready to start a family. But I'm glad I had them young too for more reasons than one. But to each their own.

My son was born when I was 19, didn't bother me at all. Then again he was planned.

I was 22 when I had my first, she's 17 today.
I had my last/5th at 34.
I have an larger than average family but I'm still young enough to get a life of my own and enjoy it.
It pays to have at least one of them at a young age... built in babysitters!!

Congrats! That's awesome
!! Personally I want to wait until I've finished school and am married and have our own home.. financially stable and ready to afford kids. Some people are in their early 20's but I suppose I've been a bit of a late bloomer! Also there's the fact that my ex barely brought home enough money to cover the utilities after she paid for her gas and what-not.. The girl I've just started seeing is a manager at a Khols department store and seems very independent financially, so combined we would be just fine if it works out! I was figuring marriage and children in my 30's, but that can always be bumped up if I end up with someone like the girl I'm seeing now, way too early to tell but one can always hope right? =oP Good luck to you and all single parents though! You definatly have my respect for doing what you have to to provide for your family!------ This thread is Archived ------

I had my first son when I was 27, and in my country it was considered too late- mature mother. I had My young one when I was 42 and in UK it was just in time.(oh if you see then Justin Timberlake and Mel Gibsom-great boys) Have done two university degrees, travelled the world and enjoyed my life. But a dream was to have a great partnet at the age of reason and walk together by the seaside hand in hand
one clever person told me-What are you waiting for? what old age?
GO AND DO IT NOW

I had my eldest when I was 19. Shes 29 and just getting married next year ( although theve been together for 12) I think that you do with what life gives you. Im glad I had my kids young. But I also respect women who choose otherwise

ok.. so although one person here seems to think the thread is for his usual monotonous bashing of 'bad' people who make wrong choices.. can I please say that I had my first kid at the age of 19 and the second at 33. If I had to do it all again, I would (of course, not in the same circumstances.. ) but yeah.. I would..
Having a kid at an early age had its pros and cons.. and having a child at this age.. well, I am more mature and able to fully appreciate the blessing that child is in my life although I lack energy sometimes, lol... So I have done it both ways.. and once again, I'll say, I would do it all again!!

..just one is stressful enough, but I love him dearly, no regrets!....I do think having kids early is better, we are young and energetic and able to take care of them, right now am focussing on career, so he being older, is an advantage!------ This thread is Archived ------

I guess having kids in early 20s teaches a lesson called responsibility and having kids at a later time is like getting a better to chance to sped time with themsorry for going on.
