Who makes better parents?

It doesn't matter if you started a family early or late in life, i think what is important is that you know what you're getting into and that you are prepared physically, mentally, psychologically. If you love your husband and kids you're going to be a good wife, mother to them. Good Luck :D

you will be a good parent no matter what age you enter parenting, it is in the heart not in the age. if you are patient enough and willing to wake up in the wee hours in the morning then you will be a good parent. if you are willing to support your kid in all she/he wants then you will be a great parent no matter what age you are. congrats on your wedding and dont worry just go with the flow... be a wide reader about parenting and sure you will be a great one. wink wink

I think it depends on maturity level, but I think that those who start their family late take their responsibilities more seriously if they do it at a very young age they may or may not be very responsible but older parents do their work really very sincerly but there are exceptions in all cases.

I have 3 kids myself and I am also a single mom so I have to say, that doesn't matter. A good parent is someone who loves their children with all that they have, and they do their best to provide for and care for and raise their children to be wonderful adults. I was young when I had my son, just out of high school. I could have continued living my life as a "teen" but I chose to grow up because I no longer had to worry about myself, I had another little innocent person depending on me, and there was no trial runs. I'm sure that you will be a wonderful mother. All good parents worry. It comes with the position, mandatory. Good luck to you!

i don't think that being a good parent has much to do with age, my husband and me had our first child when I was 21 and he was 23 amd are now on our second and when he/she is born I will be 23 and he will be 25. I believe that we are good parents, we provide everything our child needs and spend more than enough time with him-we have only been on 2 dates since he was born and he is 16 months. I just think it depends on when you are ready, you will know when you are and if it's something you really want, than just be confident that you will be a good parent =)

Being a good parent is not measured by being married late in life or marrying early. It depends on the person actually, if you can nurture well your child with much love and care, provide your child security, good health, good education and a good future, then your doing good as a parent. However I observe that most teens marrying early or bearing child early turn out to be not really good parents because they are not yet matured enough for the responsibility. Most of the time this teenage parent rely on their parents for financial support, and would often leave the care of their baby to their parents.
