People are aiming to have kids at like 35 these days. This is the cutoff point, where pregnancy complications start getting more likely. Gotta get your life in order and get some stability. That may have been easier in the past.

The older I get the less I understand how people are able to even get to a position where they're able to have kids comfortably. I feel like my life is just a constant mess of putting out one fire after another, not the mention the state of the greater world

This is great preparation for having children.

And very likely not something I will put into practice haha

Needing to be responsible for a child would be too much for me, I would not be able to cope. I already get routinely overwhelmed and burnt out

Everyone has a plan till they ~~get hit in the mouth~~ have a child
