My parents were both 34 when they had their 4th and final kid, and I just had my 3rd and final kid at 38.

My parents had first kid at 23 and I had first kid at 31.

Timelines are just different, now, with more people going to college and focusing early on careers.

That was Pre Birth Control Pill. I was the 7th of 8 children.
Life wasn't much different between living conditions 1927 and 1942.

lol I was 5 or 6 . I thought my mom was my sister. Funny thing is I knew my Dad was my Dad. My Grandparents on my Dads side were having none of that.

I never thought about it with my Mom . She was wild as hell though. So I didn’t see her a lot, until I was older.

Mom: 20
Dad: I think 20, could have been 21, didn't grow up knowing him.

My mom had her first at 19, last at 41.

Momma was 21 and daddy was 22.

As Adults, do you compare your financial wellbeing to what your parents were at the same age you are now?

lol

About my mom . At 17 she ran away with a truck driver, he started making her do his laundry so she came back home as the story goes.

She then hooked up with some circus guy , so then she ran away with the circus.

Has lived under the freeway bridge with a cult or some crap after that.

She is grounded now and is an office manager for a medical company.

My Grandfather tells these stories at holiday gatherings…. Because of the hell she put him and my grandmother through. Kinda like never going to let her forget it lol.
