I dont know how to title the thread really but i have got my hard hat on for what i im about to say.

I dont mean them that have struggled or have been trying for years.
I mean them that have kids some that have grown up kids then the parents want another baby.
Then moan how hard it is again.

I mean some have kids going to secondary school some have grown up kids then go on to have another just has they start to get freedom back.

Then moan about how hard it is with peri setting in ageing parents and schooling toddlers etc.

I noticed years ago it was like a craze to be an older mum not so much a hype now.

Older mum hype is like the big brow hype its fading out.
But i read on MN all the moaning about being a parent and peri in the mix.
I could not imagine having a toddler or still raising teens in my 50s.
I want to be on a beach somewhere sipping cocktails at that age.
Not doing school runs and potty training.
