Just read this on another AIBU thread. I've never seen any stats but I'm always very keen on getting facts into MN threads so I'm intrigued by this one.

I figured we could get a general idea here.

IABU - of course I am in the 60-75 age bracket
IANBU - nah I'm younger / older than that.

Can't vote on the app 😡
I'm in my 50s and would disagree. I often feel old and old-fashioned on AIBU

50’s here.

I'm in my 20s

I'd agree with 30s-40s.
I joined over 20 years ago so posters like me are obviously significantly older, but surely the majority of people find parenting sites at the point in their lives when they are becoming parents.

If I'd never found it then, I certainly wouldn't click on a parenting site now.

I'm in my 30s!

30's here.

I would have guessed the most common age on mn would be 30's and 40's.

I would say whoever is saying that is making it up.
As are most people who begin a sentence with "facts are"
It's a useful hint that they very very likely are not.

I’m in my 40s. Based on what I read here I’d say those ‘facts’ aren’t true.
