stolen: pole: How old were your parents

[ktkl09]

My mom was 32, my dad was 31. I am the youngest of 4, my oldest brother is 9 years older than me and my other two brothers (twins) are 7 years older. I was a "whoops" baby for sure!

[Beeps (WOT?*)]

Mom was a few months shy of 24 and dad a few shy of 27. But I'm probably a generation ahead of a lot of you.

mrsbpo, I can't stop watching that gif. Its hysterical!

My parents were 20 and 22. My sister is two years older.

I had my first (and only) daughter when I was 28, after being married 6 years. This was the perfect age for us because we were able to save $$, travel, and have time to ourselves.

Mom was 23 and my dad was 24. Their age had no impact on my decision of when to have children.

Mom was 20, dad was 19. I'm the oldest of 2. I'm from the same(ish) area as Kpol and Pumpkin and I agree it's totally the norm where we're from.

Sibil - It did change our plans a bit. Dh's mom was 17 and dad was 18. They pushed it constantly to him and his sister to wait until they were older to have kids. So, he wants to wait.

My mom was was 29 and my dad was 27. My brother is four years older than I am. For their peer group, this was a bit on the later end of the spectrum (I'm 40 years old). I, on the other hand, had my son a month before turning 38.
