Age-30( No kids)

Hey guys! Me and my partner are both 30 and we don’t think we are yet ready to have one. At the same time we know this is the time to have kids… do any of you feel the same?

I guess thr age buckets are too high. I say 25 to 28 is the right time.
Your kids sld be 25 or above by the time you retire. So that you can provide good education while your earning better.

This is my opinion.

I'm right in the middle of that range which you mentioned and i find myself to be a kid. I can't imagine having a kid for the next 10 years as well

Have a kid only if you’re mentally prepared for it. Don’t have a kid just because family is pressurising.

We had our kid when I was 35. Having a kid comes with lots of emotional and physical well being apart from financial wellbeing.

That being said there can be pregnancy complications for women as they grow older. Before 35 is a good place to be in. But some women don’t have complications even in their 40s. This again depends on lot of factors.

You make a good point but if you really think about it, no one ever is truly ready.

I think they used the word “partner” because it is gender neutral, so that they can keep their own gender anonymous. Please be kind towards others before criticising.

Why do you show hatred in anonymous platform? Can you explain why you want to school then here? (I'm trying to learn why generally there is hate speech on an anonymous platform like this. Please don't take me personally. Just trying to understand your thoughts behind the commets).

I had my kid at 24. In the initial days, I felt I should have planned it a little late. Now I crossed mid 30, I am getting the feeling of I just can retire around 45 and going back to my village to settled down. If I had my kid at 30 I need to work until my 50. Whenever I go for PTM meetings, I seen the my kid's friends parents are mid of 40s and still they are chasing the life. Specially in IT mid 40s is a very risky period.

Yehan 35 ki umar mein bhi shadi nahi ho rahi hai... aur 30 mein kids ki batein chal rahi hain

By seeing how mentally matured I am, i feel im still a man child. Bringing a kid in this world would br a disaster for the child.

I barely know anything about adulthood. I still am an irresponsible adult. So the sure short way to srew up my life is to bring a kid out in this world

No one ever is ready, you think all these parents were ready? They all just crossed their hearts and just jumped

30, single, no kids — watching couples debate baby deadlines while I debate if I should nap or day-drink. Can’t relate, won’t relate.

If you're not sure about it for god's sake don't have one. You'll feel stuck your whole life. And put that negative feeling on the child and ruin it's life also

I had first one around 25 and second at 34. So I fall into both brackets. I believe there is no perfect age to have kid. Once you blessed, you will automatically learn parenthood.

Irrespective of whether you can really take care of that child?

If you want kids then you should plan now, by 32 and above it becomes tuff, because every body has their own biological cycle.You might be not ready mentally now, but later on body or physic will now be ready to have pregnancy. I will suggest that you should visit a gynecologist once. Good gynecologist will definitely suggest and guide you on the complications that you may get in later 30s pregnancy.
