when should you have child?

I think the ideal is is before 30 as you have the energy to run around your kid. Have a nice day.

I think it truly depends on the person. No age is to old anymore it seems but for me. I had my first child 3 weeks before my 21st birthday and I was ready for here then but that was me. I don't think young teenagers should go about trying to get pregnant but then again if it happens and they can accept the responsibility more power to them. I just don't judge anyone because I haven't walked in their shoes and have no clue how ready they are for a child. Like I said , I think that it is based on the individual and when they think that they are ready and able it can be anywhere from 18-60 .. Though I looked at having kids as I wanted to have them when I was young enough to enjoy them and also be able to run after and play with them and not have to worry about sore joints. I hope that this has helped you ... But there is no ideal age to have a kid but what you and your partner decide.

I am going to be 60 soon , I think it is carzy to have a child now, just when the burdens of life are getting easier. As for energy, I have plenty, but want to spend it on having fun and traveling to see the world, something that was not possible while raising children. I had both my children in my early 20's which was perfect for me, as I was able to to go back to college when they started school. Children are work and you have to be willing to devote around 20 years to the process, which means unless you are rich you will not be able to do all the things you do now. You time will be invloved with the children, which is rewarding in itself, but not enough to sustain your entire life. When you are finished raising them how old will you be? To me that is the question. The later you start the older you will be and then will you then have energy, and so on to do things that you want to do.

whenever you have a job so your girlfriend could take care of it and if she don't want to she can pay a babysitter.

In the biology class my teacher told me that the best time for a women to have a child is from 21-25 years old. And she also told me that it is not so much important for a man but would be the best before 30! Best of luck my friend!

i will have a child if i could have a stable job, because in our country people here are struggling for food, and i dont want my child or my children will be experiencing from being starvy. i should save a lot of money and i should get a stable job in order to provide there needs.

the younger you are, the better for your body (generally) but you need to be emotionally ready for a baby as it really taxes you! also you should plan financially. needless to say, a baby is very expensive to raise in today's world.

I think that the perfect age for a lady to have her first child is around 25 years old. That way she is old enough to have got a good career, house and car already. She might have done so of the things in life that she wanted to like studying or traveling. The lady might have her second child two or three years later in an ideal situation. However some ladies have not found their life partner by that stage of their life. Some ladies of that age might be establishing the early stages of a successful career. They may meet the right man aged 30 and get married aged 32. If so they should try to have their first baby before aged 35 and then their second baby before aged 40. Some teenagers get pregnant and this is a surprise for them. Motherhood comes early for them and their child will be grown up by the time they reach 40. It is not ideal for a teenager to have a baby but I think it is better than having an abortion. A lady can also have her first baby in her early twenties and that is a good time if she is ready for parenthood. I think medical treatment can make a lady pregnant in her late forties and that is fine but I think it is too late if she is in her fifties or sixties. Ladies have more energy when they are younger, sixty is time to retire or become a grandmother.

There are alot of things that go into it. As far as being ready financially your never really ready so don't wait for that. The risk of having a child at an older age is higher as far as health. They always say that when your pregnant you have 1 foot in the grave b/c of all the things that can go wrong that is why its so important to be under doctor supervision during your pregnancy. As far as entergy kids have alot and they diffently will keep you in shape running after them. I wouldn't personally have a child at 60 b/c I would want to see my child reach their milestones in life and not die before they happen so I would never have one that old. Yes you can die at any age but why wait that long when your chances of dying are higher?

I think that people should consider the child. I mean that child isn't going to have their parent around for very long. I mean no 60 isn't ancient, but by the time the child is 20 the parent is gong to be 80. I think that you should be less then 40 when having a child. You want to be able to spend time with your child, and be able to do all those things, that once you age you can't always do. Not saying can't can't cause some people really get out there and live life to the fullest. But having a child to old just doesn't give you time to enjoy them, and enjoy those future grandchildren.

Good day.. For me there is no specific time line as to when its the perfect age to have a child. Circumstances like unplanned pregnancy, Reversible reproductive disorder among others constitutes it's unpredictability. I think just being ready to accept responsibility when it does come is enough. Love your child and love being a dad would be enough to say one is ready to have a child.

hi friend,the best time for a women to have a child is from 21-27 years old.Atleast before 30 years old. take care.

I had babies when i was young. I had my first one when i was 17 and my second one when i was 20. I am not sure there is a perfect age for having children i guess its when ever you are ready.

Physiologically, when a woman starts to menstruate, her body is preparing itself to become biologically ready for conception. On the other hand, this is the time when young boys also are ready physiologically. In growth and development, there is no wide gap in physiologic changes but health is a major factor in determining the quality of pregnancy. Ideally, a woman in her 20's is expected to be ready in child bearing but the aspects of motherhood is a complex issue other than the child-bearing capacity itself. It varies from culture to culture and the level of maturity is a very important factor in developing such relationships. The advent of technology gives an impression of a healthy living. Generally at age 60, a woman is expected to have their menopause. Yet, if the woman at this age is still capable physically (which I guess she is because she can not be qualified to undergo such procedure if she's not.), there is no reason to question her child bearing capacity. As to parenthood, I think there is no age consideration for that. As long as the parent can catch up with the demands of the growing child, it is okay if she's old. Family is changing nowadays. Aging can also be slowed by the advent of science: means people tend to make more healthier choices... I think calling her mom is no issue. Some families calls their grandparents mom or dad. The emotional bond of mother to child will not create such sense of confusion as long as the aging parents is the primary care-giver. It is therefore assumed that at this age, both parents should be aware of the stress that could be encountered in bringing up a child especially, at this point there are health-related concerns directly proportional to aging.

Some say that maturity is the basis when one should have a child cause some may be thirty but thinks like thirteen. Some say that women should consider giving birth in the mid-twenties to avoid complicated deliveries. Some say that one should be financially stable in doing so. Luckily, I'm one of those who never believe in hearsays, I believe that if God wills for you to have it, you can't refuse it.

For me, one should have a baby if he/she is already emotionally, financially, mentally ready for parenthood because it's not easy.

of course when you are still young. so that we can still protect and take care of them. we can still play and guide them. we cant have a child if we are old already. why? first, how can we take care of them? besides, if we are old already the chances are lesser. even with the magic of science. cause if we aged our system goes with it too.

It's depend on your commitment with your couple. I'm a 29 years old and have married for 4 years, but I think I'm not ready to have a child.

In my opinion, to woman, it better ot have a child between the age of 28 to 32, and to man ,it better to have child between the age of 28 to 35.Recently, i sew a TV serial call"destiny love" and there is a line the actor said:"it is no a accident that that a baby come to the world by accident;it is their parents lead he or she come to this world hand by hand! if we are not ready to be a goood parent, then do not have a child, no matter what your age is!" this really touched me deeply. nowaday, many adolescence have a baby but he is not ready for that, they not brings their baby to whis world, and leave them lone. thay can mot even take care of themselves, so how can they take care of a child?! so my answer is no matter how old are you, if you want t ohave a child, ank yourslef:"are you ready to be a good parent?if not, please do't have a child!

its really nice to have a child before the age of 30,as it is the appropriate time for a woman to concieve,but if a couple is not having a child then they should try.but to me exact age is 25-32.
