I remember a discussion on here regarding having children or not. It’s somewhat up in the air. I’m still about it and since I’m almost in my 40s and my husband is in his 50s! I mean if older men are fertile it doesn’t mean women aren’t. Anyways there are some concerns considering I am high...
I remember a discussion on here regarding having children or not. It’s somewhat up in the air. I’m still about it and since I’m almost in my 40s and my husband is in his 50s! I mean if older men are fertile it doesn’t mean women aren’t. Anyways there are some concerns considering I am high functioning autistic and my husband is Bi-polar and I did Google it and said there is a chance that it will be passed onto the child!!! There are people who keep telling me kids are a lot of work. And are sure you want one And I’m working on how to take care of myself. I mean how many people you know with mental disabilities have kids!?

    Based on the history you provided and the erratic nature of your posts, I would advise against having children. Growing up with parents with mental illnesses (especially when trying to manage your own) can very easily be traumatic. When you factor in your ages as well, it does not seem to be a recipe for a healthy child.
