Because suddenly you are too old.

• Jach 16y ago
  Not buying it, old people get married all the time and some even adopt kids. But I'm in the camp that thinks one should wait for marriage and kids, not horribly long, but wait, so don't listen to me. :) I know a lot of people in Utah who got married way too soon and suffered for it.

    I wouldn't advise to marry and have children age 18. But I just had my first child and I am 38, wish I was younger. If my son had children at the same age I do, I would be 76. Will I still be a fit and healthy grandfather by then? Also, how fit will I be age 50, to play soccer with my boy? Better late than never, though - I am certainly happy.

      Also, how fit will I be age 50, to play soccer with my boy? Please try to use this as a source of motivation for staying fit, rather than as a reason for sorrow.

        I do, but there is probably a limit as to what is achievable (or at least some random luck is required).

  As a father, I'd say that being "too old" for kids is probably a good thing, because it means they weren't high enough on your priority list for you to do a good job at anyway.

    I think you adapt quickly to being a father, though. I get your point, but on the other hand, sometimes time just flies by.
