When do you think is the best age to have children? I understand when your married stable etc.. But as far as age preference.

I think you should be stable, but I also wouldn't want to not see my grandkids and possibly great grandkids grow up.I like the fact that I am giving my best years to them and I'm not eat up with arthritis or going through menopause while watching my son play ball or my daughter cheer. It really depends on your goals and expectations. I'd say when you have married, finished school, started career and can actually save money for them. I can't say whether that would be 28 or 34. But maybe somewhere along there.

Obviously it will be quite individual, but one thing to consider is fertility. It will start to diminish for many women in their late 20's/early 30's and even more so by the late 30's and early 40's. While men's fertility may not decline as such, their ability to produce quality sperm will start to diminish also as they get older.

Maturity has no age limits.

I would say that best time to start having children would be in your mid twenties. That is just a opinion.

Not everybody is ready or mature enough even at that age. It all depends and each individual is different.
