Apparently a racist
The kid being a "Star" baby, there's a chance he/she will be shooting heroin at 14yo and OD before the old man kicks.
To each his own I guess.
I'm 58 and the last thing I'd want in my life is a screaming crotch fruit with a blown out diaper running around the house. Fuck that, it's my turn to move in with one of my kids and shit myself on their bed, eat their food, make them pay my bail and wander down the street wearing only my socks.
I didn't say it was wrong. I said selfish.
Since when did a difference in opinions get some people so offended on here?
I don't see why saying it's selfish is so far fetched. Have you ever known someone who was raised by old parents?
My dad was like 35 and mum was 18 or so when they hooked up. He was 40 when he had me, dad was 55 when my youngest sister was born. I don’t know what he/they were thinking. That is super old to be having kids, screw that.
That’s why I got fixed at 38 or so it would suck to be raising a baby while socking away for retirement.
Hell be 68 when he's 5, he'll be 73 when he's 10. You remember how much fun a 73 year old was when you were 10?
The biggest thing though is that there is a good chance that kid will loose his or her dad at a very young age. Imo that shows they weren't thinking about the kid, they were only thinking about themselves.

Exactly!
Glad you finally get it
Yes and they are great people. Also have friends that were raised by grandparents because their young parents were to selfish and didnt want him after they found out how much work it was and they couldn’t party anymore. He is also great dude. YMMV I guess?
I know quite a few that are 70 with 10 year olds and they are loving it. Life happened late for them and they wanted a family. Who am I to say they shouldn't do that if it makes them happy.
Having a kid when your not ready or on some whim/lark because of age is selfish and stupid.
Just remembered some girls we went to school with who had old ass parents. The older girl went pretty deep into drugs. The younger one went even deeper and ended up going away for it.

Well as long as the parents are happy right? :rolleyes:
You saying the kids aren't missing out on anything with parents that old?
it seems that my life is happening late for me :( thanks for giving me a little hope.
Ummm.....count me in the not having kids till i am 30-40. That was what i grew up with and it was awesome. If you are fiscaly responsible parents, what that means is that retirement is already funded (because if you didnt do it before you had kids and before 40, you are going to have a shitty retirement kids or not) and your kids get to grow up with awesome experiences. Instead of being broke, kids get to grow up with good schools, nice houses, land, vacations etc. Way better than popping out some fuck trophies at 20.
"But sports.....cant throw a ball..." STFU. Have kids at 20 > At 16, you're 36 and they are better than you. Have kids at 40 > At 14, you're 54 and they are better than you big fucking whoop.
You are really trying hard and going out on a tiny limb to prove that Your theory is the only one that is correct.
The man has played Music All of his Life. Now he he the "Right" cord
The kid will be rich with a Hot Mom no matter what happens to Dwight.
Some never knew their Dad and were broke with a Whore/drug addict Mother. So I don't see the problems you're pushing for.
You mean like
parents that are young and they have no idea whats going on in life
or parents that are so young they are not financially stable?
or parents that have to work 99% of their time?
or cause young parents always stay together and never get divorced and drag their kids through that
or cause young parents don't just split and leave their kids or spouse with kids
Kids don't know the difference, they have parents that love them and that's all they care about.
My grandparents on both sides lived long enough they could have raised both me and my sister through college and our parents were not young.
At this point, the counter arguments are just getting dumb. I'm not trying to win any argument here, just making counter points to all the dumb responses.
Right, because being rich and having a hot mom always equates to raising a great child?
Kids can't tell the difference between the 40 year old parents running around playing ball with them, wrestling with them and the parents that are too old to do any of that?
I seriously can't believe I'm in the minority on this. If you make it to 50 and haven't had kids, you want joy in your life, adopt an older kid.
You don't think there's a reason most women need all kinds of medical help to have kids past their 40s?

Shouldn't you be sleeping... or driving to work.
People who work out of town all the time shouldn't have kids, how selfish
IMO he his view of the world is what he sees through a straw.
Oh Jesus, talk about irony
Typical response of the narrow minded ignorant. Thank you for validating my opinion.
I really tried just ignoring you since you literally haven't made a single argument. It's just comical at this point.
I've at least made some valid arguments for my point.
But yes, I'm the narrow minded one.
Had to take a shit before I left
I refuse to stay out of town because I have kids actually. The only reason I'm doing what I'm doing is because I can be home at 5.
Fuck that, you're an asshole if you have a kid at that age. You know there is a really high chance you won't be around for even high school, much less anything beyond that. Selfish move.
Fame and money and you can fuck just about anything you like.
I backed a singer that opened for Dwight back when he was getting going (early 80's) it was us, lone justice and Dwight headlining. I can say that Dwight, in person, was among the 10 ugliest people I have ever seen. The hat covers a lot of ugly. He went on to bang and dump Sharon Stone (nice on both counts) and have a great career (which would have been even better if he'd kept Pete Anderson in charge of the music) Anyway, if he was able to bone someone and have a kid, I have no opinion about that. I am married to a much younger woman who I was able to meet and date without her ever knowing if I had any money or not... and, it works... the french say 'half your age plus 7 is perfect' and I think they are right. People who make up rules for other people are assholes.
The week I stayed in the hotel in sf when you grabbed your parts was my first time doing that and it sucked. The wife even came up with the kids to bring me dinner 2 evenings. I want to say the 7k+/week is worth it but it really isnt.
