How old is too old to have kids?

By no means think that ALL marriages are failures today. There are people who have very good and strong marriages. You have to make the decision on your own of what you wish to do with your life. I do recall when in hospital giving birth to one of my sons this old woman and old man in the bed beside me who put off having kids into their 60's that just had a child with help of todays technologies. When talking to them they said they were too busy enjoying life and kept putting it off and that now they just wanted to have one child before they passed on. I wonder at their ages how active they can be with said child. Alright it is possible that they are still around when the child is 80. Maybe they just want an heir??? Who really knows, but there has to be more health risks the older you get. Especially since they left it so long they needed help. Maybe they wanted to see that their relationship would last that long. None the less a marriage is a risk where you will never know if it will stand the test of time. In the end divorced or not if you have children be there for them.
Ask yourself would you rather take the risk or not have kids at all in your life time. What would you regret more not having kids or having them and ending up divorced?

According to this article it cost $180K to raise a child to the age of 18:

That's from 3 years ago and it's in US dollars. So factor in inflation since 2006 and US-to-CAD conversion rate and it's probably closer to $220K
$220K is a lot of SP's

That's the problem, I've gotten bored with the pay for play stuff, so I don't know what other options there are. I've seen so many escorts the last couple years that I can't remember having sex without a time limit, on the other hand I've also gotten so used to variety that i don't know if i could be faithful.ultraviolet said:According to this article it cost $180K to raise a child to the age of 18:
