more experience older men has seen life and met life on its terms an older man knows the pit-falls, learning and knowing obligation to your family, finding respect for the one you married and sharing the best of times and the worst of times and teaching your kids on how to be a decent human being, the thing is all the wild and silly things you did when you were younger. Now you think more clearly.

I think as they get older they become better at it. Think most of the things that they do when they're younger, become less important as they become a father.

I think it depends on how mature the man is. we had our first i was 18 and he was 20 but he was a great father then and still is. I'm sure they learn more as they go but even some men that are older are still imature so it depends on the maturaty i think more than the age

sure its like that only..this is not just the case for parents..in everything its like this only..as we get older we gain experince and we do our job more responsibly..... and the father gets to know more about his son everyday...that helps him to do better!

I think, in general, people are a little more refined when they're a little older. You calm down, you mature. Not just men, and not just about parenting. Generally, everyone gets more mature as they age.

I really hope so! God I Pray that, thats a true fact, because my husband is 26 & I still feel like Im waiting for him 2 grow the hell up!!! Nobody in my family has ever been divorced, seriously!!!(on my moms side at least,who is pretty much all I see) so Im hoping & praying that with much patience, and time he will be very in tune 2 his children & his marriage, like I see a lot of my older peers
