Question:

Is 38 to old to tryto start a family?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Definitely not. If you feel you can financially support children and a wife, you'll be perfectly fine with a family. I know an 80 year old man who has a daughter that is 16 years old. Of course, his wife isn't 80, but still, he's doing fine.

Besides, it's not like anything will happen to you before your children are all grown up. Having a 12 year old child at age 50 isn't uncommon at all. My father started his family at age 36, and he's still alive and well.

So, I say, go for it! You've got nothing to lose, and you're young enough to be able to care for your children financially and family-wise. Good luck to you in the future!
