Would you have your first child at 45?

[The_Truth]

What fukked up? Aren't you talking about having kids later is good because you can have fun while you're young?

Is it the world is fukked up or is it you want to have fun?

OOchie walie walie One mic?

I have nothing against people not wanting kids because they want to enjoy their life. But people need to stop with the "the world is fuked up" excuse.

....."fukked up" as in having kids you can't afford to take care of.

My pops had my youngest sister at 45

15 year old high schooler at 60, my dad don’t even be on her ass like he was with me and my older sis.

half the shyt she do we would’ve gotten our ass whooped for

I gotcha. Yea it’s a little different if the coin is there. But i agree... the average old nikka making babies 45+ yrs old is pointless. His ass won’t ever retire. Can you imagine being on child support in your 50s and early 60s?

Have your SSI garnished for Child Support at 68 brehs....

There is an OG at my job, late 60s....his daughter is 11/12, recently divorced....he probably will never retire....

He has a new gf and living his best life it seems lol...

45 is too old imo. My fondest memories are with my dad who was very active, doing things. Taught me how to swim, coached me through football all the way to college. Tennis, hiking, boxing, fishing... just getting up every morning and running together then working out together etc. Remembering what it felt like beating your dad at basketball after years of losing. Him being mad but proud. And now him being older, we can sit down and laugh about so much. Times when he was fukking me up and then when I started busting his ass.

You rob your kid of having those memories when you’re too old to do anything. He’s gonna have memories of a grandfather, not a father. You rob yourself of that experience as well. You need to be able to be active at least until he’s of age and on his own.

Stay in shape and your all good, its mental as much as physical

I will be 40 in October and have no children. At what age would it be too old for me to do it??

 

[Vandelay]

I'm 36. If I don't have a kid by 40, I'm not having kids.

Damn...

How old are you now and do you still feel that way now??

 

[The ADD]

Hell knawl they cost to much

I’m consistent if nothing else

Hilarious because I met my wife three months after that post. Still ain’t having kids.

 

[Vandelay]

How old are you now and do you still feel that way now??

41.

Still want to, but I recognize it may not happen. Not gonna have an accident baby, and I'm probably 2-3 years from it happening with someone that I like.

Been doing a lot of internal digging in that, am I the problem lately?

Better to have your 1st child at 45 than to have your 1st child as a broke 18 year old because you wanted to take it off of your to do list.

You're not wrong but their is growing evidence their is a trade-off

The perils of putting off fatherhood: why it poses risks to children’s physical and mental health

Men have biological clocks too. Fertility drops with age, and the likelihood of offspring having conditions such as autism, schizophrenia and leukaemia rises

Damn...

Pandemic ruined things i was gonna have another one myself but now I feel too old late 30s

If I'm financially abundant, which means I likely have the resources and time to do things that improve my health, and have the 98% perfect woman, yes.

I don't give a fukk about being the cool sexy parent when trying to make ends meet has my head exploding.

27 when I said this and now 32. No timeline for when I feel my life should no longer be about myself and rather cut the faucet than let a woman control my future.

If old niqqas get out the way and retire in '26 like I keep hearing, I'll be starting the process of freezing the original sauce before discontinuing the recipe.
