No, we don't walk away. But when we're holding on to something precious, we run.

Around 55 and 56, assuming no skipped or repeated grades and graduation at 18. I was almost 38 at DD's birth and 39 for DS's.
Prekids, I was planning on taking early retirement at 55 and be paying for my own, long wanted degree in archeology. Definitely didn't think I'd be paying for anyone else's college...

52 and 53. Just enough time for me to still do idiotic things before I retire.

My ex will be SEVENTY when his youngest graduates high school! I have a friend that will be 68 when her daughter graduates from HS. But, her daughter is adopted..So at least no fertility treatments in menopause.

But, her daughter is adopted..So at least no fertility treatments in menopause.Not necessarily so. 50 isn't completely out of the question for getting pregnant. Many people think they are going through menopause, but really those ovaries spit out all their remaining eggs and if all the planets align - whoops!

She's 66 now and has 4 still at home a 19 year old (in college), a 17 year old, a 14 year old and a 35(?) year old that is severely disabled. She has grandkids older than her youngest.

It's a great pity the right of free speech isn't based on the obligation to say something sensible.

His bosses' wife had their youngest when she was 48. Theoretically I could still get pregnant. Thankfully it's not going to happen.

One of the reasons why I went and had myself spayed.

I would do a Thelma and Louise if I was pregnant at 50. I would have done T&L at 27. But I only wanted one. Would have waited till a second turned 16 before me the big D.

In no way was I ready for a kid at 20, but I have to admit I'm a bit jealous of the posters who will be/were under 40 when their kids become/became legal adults!
