'Grayest Generation': Older Parenthood In The U.S.

Pretty much my worst nightmare.

Ages 25-30: I'm not ready, i'm not ready. I don't want to.
Ages 30-35: Ok I think i might want to but i have no one to do it with. No one i want to do it with.
Ages 30-40ish: Ok I have someone and we want to have a baby. We struggle for years to have a baby. Then we have a baby and it's not healthy. We are old and need to take care of our baby, but they have severe health issues.

WORST FEAR.

It's outrageous that I'm even thinking about this right now! But This story from NPR just struck me and I want to share that terror w/ you. you're welcome.
