We're not meant to be parents when we're 50.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
As parents, we're human beings, too, but sometimes we're not as understanding as we'd like to be.
Women are now very comfortable to have babies into their late 30s. You can be a father in your 50s. I'm not saying it's for everybody, and I think people have to get their own life secure before they take on the responsibility of a partner and children.
I know for my wife and I, we always loved the idea of being young parents.
A lot happens at 50, the best thing being that you just don't care anymore. At 40, you still care. At 30, you care way too much - and your twenties are quite frankly a nightmare. Bring on 60, I say: just imagine the joy of having grandchildren.
Age merely shows what children we remain.
I never thought I was going to have children. I just thought after 45, that was it.
My father was 40 when he had me, so he was more a grandparent than a parent.
I don't see any reason why I couldn't have a child when I'm 40.
We've got too many young girls, who don't know how to parent, turning themselves into parents.
I'm too young at 50. I'm not grown up yet. There's part of everybody like that.
