> If you intend to have children, but you don’t intend to have them just yet, you are not banking extra years as a person who is still too young to have children. You are subtracting years from the time you will share the world with your children. Well it's both really. "Too young" varies from person to person, though. I know some people that really had their lives together in their 20s, and I know people in their 40s that are still too young to have kids. We talk about age because it's easily measured, but we should also care about maturity.
