I know you lived in the UK so I will talk about the UK. House prices are so ridiculous now, that the luxury of having children in your 20s is not an option for many. In most occasions, both partners have to work for years just to afford a deposit for a family home.
-
We have two kids in one of the most expensive cities in the world. We can't afford a house either, so we rent. Why would I let house prices deprive me of children?
-
Individual choice. I was giving a reason why many choose to wait later for a family. I did not say everyone, nor did I state that people should wait.
-
Fair enough, though I nonetheless think it's a poor reason to delay. Very few people will ever be financially 'ready' in time to have kids. You've just gotta go for it before it's too late.
-
There are many other reasons. Look at a person wishing to be an accountant for example. 18 years old. Go to University 21 to 25. Professional Exams 25 to 27 Establish career Not much left of their 20s
-
Yeah, we were in the same boat. We started trying when we were in our late twenties. In hindsight though, we wish we'd started earlier. We waited for greater financial stability, but even though we got better wages, inflation has erased all of that, so we may as well have anyway.
-
Modern life is not conjusive for early families. There are many financial pressures. I'm now 26, and I would much preffered to have children by now. Ii just think the
@StefanMolyneux refused to accept there are reasons for late families. I thought it was@AOC who was utopian -

wanting a career so you can afford a healthy lifestyle for yourself and family is hardly vain. I get your point, but life is much more expensive now. not working is not an option. and a job that doesn't make you hate your life necessitates a degree, experience, etc.
-
besides, women are not simple beings. seeking knowledge and wanting to learn and have experiences and be industrious are other natural ways to make life meaningful. and it would make someone a heck of a mother and wife.
-
I have a high school education, my wife stays at home with our two sons, we live a comfortable life. I have a full time job and run a business. My day starts at 4am. You just have to be willing to make a sacrifice as a husband and father.
-
That said I have been blessed with a very high IQ. It hasn't been critical to what I've achieved in my life but I think I've managed to avoid so many of the horrible mistakes that characterize my generation because of it. My father was a factor but not as much.

It always creeps me out when men tell women what to do, like they really think women are coming to them for advice on how to be a woman. It’s just.. really weird. Maybe focus on giving men advice.pic.twitter.com/lRavtO9Lkq

Men can care about babies and women's happiness right? They are humans after all and some of them are very wise.
-
This statement assumes that a women’s happiness is inextricably linked to having children. & I think her point is that it’s weird for men to tell women what they should do instead of other men.
