Note: I'm not necessarily wise. Having children don't preclude following personal dreams - for my own situation - children enhanced my ability(and necessity) to discern if any potential dream was plausible, actionable, and worth the extra effort. For example, I've given up trying to become a billionaire - my financial security is fine, so it would be regrettable to trade away going hiking with my family for extra money. And as a practical matter, children are only horribly disruptive when very small - and they're quite fascinating as a source of entertainment in themselves. But... here's the problem... biologically, female humans seem to be designed to have children easily up until about their mid-thirties (apparently longer if the specimen is fit and active.)

I like your perspective. Because this: > And as a practical matter, children are only horribly disruptive when very small - and they're quite fascinating as a source of entertainment in themselves. Is actually very insightful. > But... here's the problem... biologically, female humans seem to be designed to have children easily up until about their mid-thirties (apparently longer if the specimen is fit and active.) No one told us that we have to choose a female of our own age. That's societies attempt to brainwash us. While it looks quite disgusting when people are 20-30 years apart, 10 years is totally ok.
