If her kids are married and stable while having a young baby that's one thing. But usually that's not the case with people having babies young. So their kids issues, drama etc will eventually become your issues and impact your relationship if you date someone like that. She gonna end up having to watch her grandchild while her daughter is out at the club on the weekends. 99% of the time It's not worth it.

Bingo

Then add the fact she will want you to buy her kid or grandchild something

There's some, but they don't make up the majority and probably aren't in this thread.

Grandparenthood at mid-30s is no longer as common as it used to be, its not "regular". The average black grandmother is 46, the average across the board is 50. So it still happens, but like I told breh, it's not the standard it once was where it's automatic that a woman is having a child before 21 anymore.

People in general are waiting longer to have children if not opting out of parenthood period.

I think we can agree to disagree on some points...

Granted, young adults are waiting to have kids later in life, but that isn't across the board. To say that grandparenthood from mid to late 30s not being regular is inaccurate. If a parent has kids in their late teens to early 20s, which still happens BTW, then it is quite plausible that they will have grand kids by mid 30s to early 40s, depending on the person...

My point is that it should never be surprising for someone who has been an adult for almost 2 decades to not be a parent or grandparent.

The question is rather do you want to deal with such person or not!! If not, then don't deal with that person!

Simple solution to a simple problem! *shrugs*

My co-worker hooked me up with her friend. Told me she had a daughter. At my age, I can accept one, maybe two. But she has to be amazing and have good kids. So ending up running into each other at a Festival downtown. She was pretty, well kept classy and very cool. Ending up talking on the phone the next day, she tells me she has to go babysit her grandson.
:picard:

I'm like wtf cause she's only like 37, they must be from a fukkin fukkin family. And that means somebody was going raw and wreckless in High school. I was so turned off. I dont have kids and I like younger women. I was just going with the flow and giving her a chance. End up meeting a 46 year old, Blasian looking. Very nice and classy looking. We talk, tells me shes in Houston visiting her new grandbaby. I got so turned off, I dont even want to just smash anymore.
:what:


I'm really not prepared to be a stepdad, so step granddad is out of the question. Maybe i'm looking for ahead. But I feel like I'll have to go to events to help support her kids and I'm just not ready for all that. I'll have to really like her.
Are you over 35? If you are if you deal with chicks over 35 you basically Netflix and nut in them.

Your swimmers and her fried eggs means less chance of seeding. Most old hoes been on hormonal Birth Control and had so many abortions that their wombs are a tomb.

dealing with older women means every date ends with you sending them to the showers.

But it basically is across the board. The 35-40 y/o grandmother becomes less and less common and women's average age of motherhood increases.

It is no longer regular and stats prove so. Your six degrees of separation showing such means there's 1 or 2 more circles proving otherwise. The average black grandmother becomes one at 46 compared to 50 across the board. 25 years ago she was 44. So even among us, an 8-10 year drop is statistically abnormal.

I know 30-something grandmothers who are Boomers and older Gen X. I don't personally know women under 40 with grandchildren.

Your point speaks mostly on women with higher education. Those women tend to wait later until they have kids, but not all women go to college. I have female relatives that are G-Mas and one of them became one in her mid to late 30s.

So, we need to decide which women we are talking about. I wouldn't be surprised for a woman to be a grandma in her mid to late 30s if she had kids young, especially if she doesn't have an education beyond high school and technical college.

Poor ppl still have kids young and typically their kids will repeat the cycle.

My point doesn't speak to that because the average age is 46-50 without any regard for educational status. We're economically at the bottom of the country and still average mid-40s.

My point is generational. My grandmothers fit this bill, and on one side that oldest cousin that made her a grandmother was an anomaly as the next grandchild was 9.5 years later which made my grandmother 50. That cousin became a grandmother herself at 47.

My eldest aunts on each side both fit this bill. So an early Silent Gen woman, a very late Silent Gen woman, a core Boomer woman, and an early X woman. I can go outside of my family and a core Millennial woman being a grandmother isn't that common.

Hell I have 37/38 year old being dramatic cause her son has a girlfriend. Now he's flat out too young for fatherhood but she's jumping to conclusions and freaking out lol.
