    The bigger problem is everyone has kids already. But by 45 or so you can start looking for people with adult kids.

        I had my first kid at 40, which was on the later side but not at all unusual.

        I came from a more rural area and occasionally here about people my age back there being grandparents already and just have to shake my head at those choices. It just doesn’t happen here

          yeah i grew up rural and by mid twenties all my HS peers were married w/ kids or doing drugs/prison. I was in graduate school on the other side of the country at 25 and marriage kids was a decade away in my mind.

          least to i haven’t been back there since i was 19 years old and never kept any HS friends.
