Where are we all at in life?

[Flowers24]

I am interested to see often on posts people at different stages of life as as parents, which one are you?

• no kids but ttc

- no kids by choice (not sure if no kids by choice people come on MN!)

• parents of babies and toddlers
• parents of primary school age
• parents of secondary and college age, uni age 18-21
• parents of 20 somethings
• parents of 30 and above
• parents of mixed ages

Probably missed something out but you get the jist.....

Me...parents of teen so secondary, college and uni age

Parent Of a 19 year old, 16, 13 and 5 year old.
Won't be having any more

No children, but not through choice. Now past It anyway.I don’t think you have that option, OP.
Yes, there are lots of people on MN who are aren’t parents, or mums, through choice or accident. There are board for people who are TCC, who are male, and multiple boards on the other parts to a life. It is to connect with a different community, with excellent Feminism threads, and interesting viewpoints from others all over the world that makes me come back and want to post.

@Shehasadiamondinthesky I got from that article that there's no risk of impact for at least 100 years? Not that it's definitely hitting earth in 100 years.

No children and no desire to have any.

Divorced mum of 20 somethings. One bought own home, Im home alone most of the time now 😕

No kids because I'm 25 Planning to try when I'm 32.

Not that you can't have kids at 25, just that I don't yet lol

No kids by choice. Feel smug sometimes at the miserable seeming existence of those that do have them.

Parenting an adult is much harder than parenting a child.

I'm 38, so I was a very young parent to my first 2 but average-ish for no. 3. A lot of my friendship group (late 30s - mid 40s) have just started having their children recently.
