If You Had Kids Later In Life, Share What It's Like Being An Older Parent

Everyone is on their own timeline and journey when it comes to having kids.

The ideal time to start a family varies for everyone and can be influenced by numerous factors such as financial stability, readiness for parenthood, and life circumstances.

If you became a parent later in life, we want to hear about your experiences.

Maybe you've always wanted to become a parent but decided to have kids after achieving your professional goals first.

Maybe you never expected to become a parent and were surprised when you became pregnant.

Or perhaps you've always wanted children, but unfortunately were unable to have children and chose to adopt.
