Well, raising kids have become harder in the later years with all that’s been going on.  @.@

Why has raising kids become harder?

Is it the social pressure on the modern parents, the double-standards saying that it's wrong to correct your children's behaviour, or the modern standard that says that you're only ready to have kids at 40+ years old, causing almost more than half of all kids newly born to have some or other form of autism or birth deffects?

That's just the excuses I personally hear all the time, so I was just wondering if y'all have heard them before, or something...

I've definitely heard the wait-til-you're-older thing, but nothing about widespread health problems as a result of it.

163560 I was more or less focusing on just the extreme pressure that teenagers have with each other and the demands to fit a certain mold. But I can see what he is talking about.   :D

Suppsedly there are scientific facts that back up the thing that at least in the case of women, the earlier they have their kids, the less likely the kids are to end up with various health problems.
It's not guaranteed a child will end up with issues if a woman is "old", but the chances for it to happen are like twice as high or something.
I don't remember exactly tho, none of these things are really relevant to me anyway.


If I ever decide I want to have kids, I'm going to look into foster care or adoption.

@Gg

Genetic material decays over time as a result of various forms of radiation (UV / Radio signals, natural background radiation, powergrid / induction, ETC), as well as natural decay due to mutation, meaning that the chance of your children getting forms of autism / birth deffects gradually gets higher with each year you grow older.

Might be smart to freeze a sperm / egg sample if you want to cheat around that problem, because 'not gunna lie. There is indeed a lot of pressure on modern day parents...

Yeah, the RISK gets higher, but this is what I was questioning:
. . . more than half of all kids newly born to have some or other form of autism or birth deffects?

If you do have evidence for this, I've got some thinking to do. :P

Well, it is really common nowadays, but I don't know if that's because of said issue, or overdiagnosing for moneyz...
