I got married at 45, I now have 6 children. But children , just like having a spouse - as wonderful as they are -don’t make a life. Others have pointed out trying to have children, or adopting, fostering - but you can also invest time in mentoring and supporting. Lots of busy families would love to have a couple give them a date night. Lots of kids would love to have a mentor - really high quality time without a lot of the hardship of responsibility. I know people who are unable to have children who have invested in others and have very rich relationships. It is not the same as having your own, but it can be amazing and deeply fulfilling
