Having children in your 20s

[Jess]

thoughts?

I think it's OK to have kids at this age as long as you can support yourself and your family. I'd rather not have kids that young though, but it varies from person to person right? My cousin is probably around 20 and he already has a son

now younger than 20..that's another thing. too young, unless you live in a country where you have children young :S

Yea i think its k to have kids in your twenties even late teens. As long as you can look after your family and yourself. As was wisely said, it various from person to person. If you have the love and maturity to raise a famiy I don't see why you shouldn't be able to (late teens being 18+)

20s is good. You might have finished college, have a stable/radical job. It is the perfect time to form a family.

Behold the power of the youths!

Mid 20s is perfect. Not when you are 13! Seriously...

Late 20s, early 30s, is probably when you should have children if you're going to have children.

20s seem to be just the right time. The later on you get, the more likely that the baby may have... issues. So long as it isn't too early and you know that the baby is going to get an acceptable quality of life.

If you can support your family, that implies you have had an education and/or are holding a decent job, in which case anybody 18+ could do that (if they didn't want to go to college).

Though early to mid-twenties is more reasonable.

Being able to support your family is a minimum requirement of any woman having children, regardless of her age.

Age shouldn't be important, it should be the ability of the parent in question. I don't think being a parent young, I think being a parent unable to support your child is wrong

I second this, so long as you can support your child, then by all means go ahead (unless you don't want one of course.)
