Age to have a baby

[lew!]

Hey, just thought id do a poll to see what age you think you should have a baby. Personally i think if you are in a good relationship and you are certain that the relationship between the mother and father will be stable, then 20 is a good age..

Closed by jesus (Forum Super Moderator) due to it being bumped.

[5,5]

I say 24.

[Paulio]

I don't think you should have a babie until your old so that you can go out with friends on a night time and spend your earnings on yourself. I voted for 30

[MangoJ]

16 and under. You'll only be in like, your mid 30s by the time they're 20! My mother had me when she was 39, I'm 16 now, and she's 55. It saddens me to know that she most likely won't be around for most of my life.

Well, it's a good thing I'm not planning on having kids, because I definitely am not ready! Hah.

[,Jess,]

I think that it definitely depends on the person, my Mum had me when she was 18 but it affected her college work and everything and she ended up dropping out, personally I would rather wait until all my education was out of the way and stuff because it'd be crap if all the work you did kind of went to waste, I'd say probably some time in your 20's

[Simmzay]

25-30 is a reasonable answer.

[Energizer]

25 - 30 i'd say

[Sunny.]

24-29 tbh. -

[luke-p]

Around 28...

Id think its somewhat freaky for someone to belive there IS an age you SHOULD have a baby. Differnt people have differnt circumstances, some want children, some dont. Depending on the indervidual circumstances some will want and be able to have children earlier on in life, others later, some never. A genral age someone should have a baby really doesnt exit "/

Whenever you're ready tbh..

[clarissa !!]

26-28 i'd say

[velocity]

any age, as long as your both emotionally & financially stable & have thought things through i spose..

[Mentor]

Read the fking OP, idiot. It said what age you think YOU should have a baby (if one wanted one). You're such an idiot. Jesus Christ.
How ironic that statement is... Like i said before theres no age I or anyone else SHOULD have a baby, at some point i may want a baby, but that doesnt necessarily mean i should. Being a human and all im not physic so my future circumstances are still pretty unknown...

Anyway in the spirt of acting mature, ill leave you again to deep-throat men as you claimed you did in the other thread :)

[MangoJ]

Psychic you mean? Oh, too bad for you. I'm a medium clairvoyant, so I am.

I see in about an hour that a hot as hell man is coming to my house, so it seems I'll be doing some of that. ;) See you.

[Herman]

26 - 29, when you have savings, when you have a job, and you're ready to fully take care of a child and dedicate your time to that child.

[buttons]

25-29 INIT COZ THN U CAN GT UR JOB N GT MARRIED N STUFF N SORT YA LIFE OUT KK THIS IS FOR FIRST CHILD FNKS.

[Joemaphobe]

I put 25-29..
bcos you should wait until your old enough as to no make any major mistakes bringing up the child, also you should be settling down & all that

[WiLLCoHeN]

15 duh lol i say 23

[Metric.]

My mom was 24 when she had my brother. So I'd say 24 or whenever you're done school.

[Jaiisun]

This depends on you and your partner.

If I was single, and lived in a perfect world,
meaning that I was going to do good in my GCSEs, A Levels and go onto University...
I'd wait until about 27/28.

But at the moment,
Me and my girlfriend of 9 months believe that we want to have a baby at about the age of 23.

[Luckyrare]

I voted 25 - 29. By that age you have some money under your belt and can support a family without expecting handouts. I beg the people who voted for less than 16 dont live in the UK, I cant be doing with people who expect handouts and you cant get a job that could pay for you and your baby when your 15. Plus you would damage your future and would expect handouts all your life. Not saying thats all teenage parents but 99.9% of them.

[RedStratocas]

there is no age :/ you should have one whenever you're ready, which is different ages for different people. and i dont know when ill be ready.

[User43]

I say 17 so u can be cool hip parants lol :)

[Sentrax]

25-29 I think.
I can't believe that many people voted below 16. :|

[RedStratocas]

I say 17 so u can be cool hip parants lol :)

lol@you

[dirrty]

any age, as long as your both emotionally & financially stable & have thought things through i spose..
exactly what i was going to say.

[OMGitsaROSS]

25-30 :D

[Proof!]

I think it should be somewhere in the 20's with a good strong relationship going.

[VPSwow]

25 - 29 you need to live a little first.

[Fifteen]

I voted for 21 - 23

[Virgin Mary]

Late 20s

[lew!]

or if you are the above poster.. Never! you just need to be touched ;)

[Robzor]

25-29.

[The Professor]

Whenever you've left education and have enough money to give it a good start in life.

[vicious]

my mum had me when she was 35, i think thats a reasonable age to have a child. she had my sister when she was 32.

below 25 in my opinion is still young, but that is my opinion. i'm just saying i wouldnt be ready to have a child then.

but i don't think there is one exact age to have a child, it's whenever you're ready and capable of doing so and are in a good, stable relationship :)

[Destiny]

Anywhere in between 21-29 is a good deal

35+ your pushing your luck :P

[bennnnn]

i can honestly say i don't think there is an 'age' because some people may want to live their life, and others well, children may well be their life.

this whole age crap is nonsence.

[.:Normal...]

Anywhere from around 23-30 is a good age range in my opinion. Lost of girls in my school are pregnant at 15, 16, 17 and my friend from middle school got pregnant at 14. (I go to an inner city school btw.) And it sucks to see how it effects them, they think everything will be so good and come to them easilty but thats just not how it works.

It depends on your situation really, if you can support the baby, have a good job, good home, food and you're stable then you're ready :).

[-Soph-]

for me i'd say 25-30,
I'm still uncertain if I want a child or not, but I certainly want to sort out my career before I even consider it.

Although my mum had me when she was 24, she told me that was wayyy too young.

[English]

i personally want to start having them at about 23/24!

[Jazza]

As long as you and your partnet are emotionally and financially ready age doesn't matter (unless you think you are ready at 16 and throw your life away).

[tully4leanne.]

Hmm id say wait until u find the right person

[T0M]

Havent read thread so somebody may have already said this but...

Any age can be the right time to have a baby tis just about when it is good for you and the person you are with

[Buzle]

25-30 is a reasonable answer.


Ill second that, at 20 I'll still be drunk and stuff from the college partys :D

[doobedoo]

24-29 tbh. -
thats what i'd say

[today]

16 and under. You'll only be in like, your mid 30s by the time they're 20! My mother had me when she was 39, I'm 16 now, and she's 55. It saddens me to know that she most likely won't be around for most of my life.

Well, it's a good thing I'm not planning on having kids, because I definitely am not ready! Hah.
I agree, though luckly my mum had me when she was 17, so theres not really much age diff.

Its good like that as your still close and my mum is still young and will see me grow up fully.

(: 17+ i think for age.

[Spy,]

i think 18+ is a sutable age for a child to be born at as u have the possablity of being finacealy subtaing a child

[today]

My mums sister's daughter, She's 17 and has a aby girl, 7 months old.

They have their own house by private rented, and she has a boyfriend who's not the dad.

They have enough money for the baby girl, and are never over using it, there the best parents i've seen

[Janet Snakehole]

Depends who you are really.
But for me, I'd say the perfect age for me is like around 20+

[GommeInc]

Any age from 16+ It's ok if you can support it and give it a good quality of life.

[Loqo]

I'd say 25 to 30 is a reasonable age. Though i dont want kids atm. :)

[jesus]

What he said.

I know people that have had them younger and I've just seen their lives go downhill.

[lew!]

yeah most of them do.. But then again, some of them it makes their life special and its their pride and joy.

But most hate it and jst treat it like a doll

[Installz]

I think its best to have a baby around 20 so you'll get to see it grow up ;]

[liam730]

i think 17 is a good age to av a baby . i think 35 is way too old cos by the time it is a teenager u will be about 50;)
