My husband was 49 when we had our now 3-year-old. We have older kids, too, but there's something about little ones in the house, and looking at the world through the eyes of a little one, that keeps you even younger than you'd be pretending to be a frat boy in your 50s.

The one factor that this author misses, and that makes the situation even worse, is that college age kids will never get a stable financial footing because of the combination of student loans and credit card debt.

No offense intended to either of you,

But I find it scary that many baby boomers are still having children. The members of that generation aren't exactly known for their great parenting skills.
