whats a good age to get married and have kids?

Answer 1

whenever you feel ready

Answer 2

After you have met the 'one and only man' of your life ... but that is the 'ideal' answer, really. Generally, if you want to have kids of your own (and not 'adopt') then you should start to have them after you turn 25, and when you do 'get pregnant' you should try spacing the 'babies' so that they are at least two years apart ... and you should 'stop' having babies at 35, although you may carry them 'well' up until your 40th birthday or even after ... however your 'chances' of getting a child with 'Downs Syndrome' go up the older you are when you get pregnant.

If you want to be 'married' before you get pregnant, that's a 'very good thing' and if you can have two or three YEARS with just you and your husband before you 'get pregnant' that's even 'better' ... because you will have 'couple time' and 'know each other better' and thus stand a much better chance of 'staying married' when you do start getting pregnant and having kids.

Answer 3

30

Answer 4

If a woman finishes her educations so she knows she can always support herself financially, then finds a job and gets married, she's probably somewhere around 25 to 28 years old. That seems to be a great age. However, before having children, spend a few fun years with your new spouse. Travel, entertain, etc ... Then have your children. Your more settled by then. You've had your fun and built on your relationship with your spouse and it's easier to focus your energy on your children now and begin a new adventure.

Answer 5

Have kids at age 30. It is statistically significant that children who are born when their parents are over the age of 30 have a much better chance of getting a better education, getting a better job, etc. It's because once you're 30, you're more stable financially and mentally.

I'd say get married maybe 2 years before that.

Answer 6

Good age to get married

after college....late twenties early 30's

Good age to have children....

at least 2-3 years after getting married

Answer 7

I suggest not getting married until one is 25 and after that can have kids. I think people need to focus on going to college and starting a career. Get stable, then think of marriage and kids. Too early and you may deny yourself a good education and/or career.

Answer 8

When you're emotionally mature enough to handle all the rigors of day-to-day life with a family.

When you can make sure you hold down a GOOD job (McDonald's doesn't count), can feed, clothe and care for your children, and you're going to be responsible enough to not go partying every night and leave the kids with a babysitter or worse, alone.

For some people this can be as young as 20 or 21, for others its never. It depends on the person.

Answer 9

I think between 24 and 28 for both, so that you can enjoy your early twenties, and get some college in, and then be more mature and ready for kids. Also, any older and your kids won't get to enjoy your best energy :)

As for being monetarily ready for kids, you are NEVER totally ready for kids, there will always be money problems :)

Answer 10

maybe 25 to 30 to get married, and 27 to 30 to get kids.
not less than 25 because that can creat poblems because you will still have a small mind, people less than 25 go only after hot guys and hot girls. its not only itheir hot on not you have to know that they will actually work and take care of their kids so when you become 25 your mind will change and it will not be only about hot so if your less than 25 just w8, just try differnt boys, then the one you fell is good stay with him until your 25 see if you still like him... happy life... :)

Answer 11

Whenever you feel ready. The two do not have to come at the same time, you know. You can be ready for marriage at one point, and ready for kids later on. Go with what feels natural and right to you, not what other people say.
