I literally do not know anybody that has so young parents as I do.
I am over 40. And none of them is even 60.
It is really funny: I am in an age group 40+. And they are in the age group 50+.
They are both extremly fit - their favourite hobby is going to the mountains. Right now they are travelling around my favourite part of the world - Dalmatian islands.

Not long ago I told my mother: "It was really hard to me when I was little, having teenage parents, because you were too young. But now - having so young parents - is the best thing ever."
PS: I prefer not to think, how old parents our child would have (if our wish came true now)
ReplyDeleteTrue about the benefits of having young parents. I have older parents because they got married late (well, much later than their peer).
ReplyDeleteMy parents married & had me fairly young as well (my mom & I are exactly 20 years and 6 days apart). There are/were pros & cons. Mom had both me & my sister out of the house (away at university) before she was 40, & when I was 40, I was still struggling to have a baby. I think there has to be a happy medium somewhere. ;)
