Raising a family is best done in young adulthood. Planning to do so in middle age is a selfish fantasy

AMEN! If I had to deal with a screaming baby at 2AM, I'd get a rock, and rock her to sleep.

At 22, I was ok with it.

On the other hand... In deep middle age, I'm a fine grandpa. I don't show my face around without the grandbabies bursting out in grins.

They don't get away with anything, but my language isn't quite so harsh these days.
