Men, having kids young (18-30) vs having kids older (31-50)???

[Strapped]

Have kids later in life after you've established yourself

How is having kids at 31 considered "older"?

 

[IsThatBrothaMouzone?]

Have kids early = better quality sperm & eggs so the kids are theoretically more likely to get the best genetics. Young, energetic parents.

Have kids older = more mature and wise parents with better resources. Better able to "max out" their kids potential.

What country Breh? DR, Colombia, Brazil, Germany, Kenya, and Thailand?

With those four countries, you’ve stuck your dikk in the world basically.

Mexico is underrated. You know knock off the whole western hemisphere within two months living in Cancun and Playa.

I’ve been to Tokyo, Japan, Panama City, Panama, Mexico City, Mexico, Lake Atitlán, Guatemala, Vancouver, Canada, and I even went fishing in the Bahamas all this year. Early next year, I’ve got Brazil, Thailand, and Vietnam lined up.

What you do for work fam?

Financial planning, but I work at my leasiure as I have other forms of passive income. I've always been good at saving and investing, so it's made life easy for me in my 30s.

Previous generations had their kids earlier than this generation, much earlier than 31

Man that’s dope as hell!!

I’m trying to take my son to PR for our birthdays.

I’m December 4th
He’s December 6th


Most definitely trying to create those core memories and get him out of the country as much as possible. His mom blocked him going on a family cruise two years ago with my dad so I got to make it happen for him..

 

[thelonious21]

Had my first at 25

2nd at 41

3rd at 44 (now)

You gotta have a kid in your mid to late teens just to prove your not a virgin. After that 30-35 is probably the best for multiple reasons but as others have said that’s if everything has gone exactly to plan. Right career, woman, location etc.

That dope, make those memories. I've spent a lot of time in PR. Definitely have to take him to El Yunqe and Old San Juan. All the most beautiful beaches are on the west part of the island though.

 

[Buckeye Fever]

I had a son @ 24, 25, 34, and 37

Edit: 1st 2 with my ex-wife, last 2 with my current wife

 

[VICVALLIN]

My wife had our first when I was 30 and our youngest when I was 32. I'm still young enough to go out and play catch with my son and shoot around with him, but I hope I have the energy and my body holds up long enough to continue to do those things with him as he gets into his teenage/young adult years. I guess I would've preferred I had been younger when we started having kids, but we also wanted to enjoy being a childless married couple that did whatever we wanted to do so I'm happy with how things turned out.

 

[#BOTHSIDES]

35-40. You should be fully established, matured, and have ability to provide child everything they could possibly need.

And got all that sinnin out your system

 

[Swirv]

I can’t call it. I’ve had kids in my 20s, 30s, and 40s; none of which were planned. I think who you have children with is probably more important. I was fortunate to have good moms for my seeds. Even that is a crapshoot because postpartum can change a woman for life.

If you haven't grown past the Disney-rugged-individuality fables, it won't matter what age you are. There is no such thing as being prepared, money or not. Having children will jar you out of your entitled expectations because you're responsible for a whole other person who cannot do for themselves, and that is a wakeup call unlike anything else.

That's what self-awareness, loyalty and faith are for, to understand no one makes it alone and to seek out the proper people to plug the gaps and move forward together. If you have none of those you have some growing up to do.
