Gender Studies : What Age Is The Earliest A Women Should Give Birth How About The Oldest

Why do you select these ages? Is this the guidelines you used in your own relationship and reproductive life? ~~~ Red Phantom ~~~

Best Answer To Gender Studies Question

I think 23 at the youngest and 40 as the oldest. Maturity levels are more likely to be stable at 23 and a baby at 40 puts you in the late 50s when that child is able to be legally on its own.

Answer 1

Earliest-20, buy then she has a greater likely hood of being stable Latest-45, after that the health risks are greatly increased

Answer 2

Ideally 30-45. I think men and women should be required to live independently for 5 years before they are allowed to get married. Then they appreciate their mates more. So if they graduate from college at 20-22- live it up for 5 years, then get serious - marry- wait a few years if they choose to start a family- BUT people dont live their lives for me.

Answer 3

Earliest- 25. You gotta live your life. I hear they have extended "adolescence" to age 26. (I can attest to that!) Latest- 45....or whatever biology dictates. Thats around the time, though.

Answer 4

I dont think there needs to be any particular ideal age range (though definitely before they get too old otherwise their child is more likely to have defects...though Im not sure when "too old" is). However, research suggests that women who have children early in life dramatically decrease their risk of breast cancer later in life (this is because denser breasts are more prone to breast cancer and pregnancy generally decreases the density of breasts). So, that kinda makes me wonder...the basic format that people nowadays choose to follow for their live seems to be this: graduate high school, go to college, find a good job and live it up for a few years, maybe get a few promotions, then starting thinking about settling down (usually in late 20s or early 30s), then start having kids a few years later. Basically, it seems that people want to make themselves "indispensable" at their jobs before they have any children...but I am beginning to wonder if that is really the best choice. Maybe we should get married and have babies early in life, raise them to school age, and THEN start moving up in our educations and careers. If we could (at such a young age) find a suitable partner, that might be even better than the format people usually use. Plus, at that young age the female body is better equipped to bounce back from pregnancy (higher metabolism, more elastic skin, etc.).

Answer 5

Usually the time frame for selecting when a woman should give birth are set by many factors. Is she going to school? If so, for how long? Does she plan on completing all post-education? This could take many years, and most women get married a few years after graduating. Then once more, perhaps, a few years later they will have children. This is usually around the ago 30 that women have their first children. However, there are always exceptions. Teen pregnancies arent uncommon, and when the children arent given up for adoption, some will marry their boyfriends and quit school. This usually happens around 17 or 18. And then, finally, the oldest a women should be when they have children would probably be in their 40s. This is the time when women are beginning menopause, so it becomes more dangerous that they will carry the child to full term. Will they? They certainly can, but the birthing process takes a much larger toll on the frame as a woman ages. All in all, it mostly depends on choices. Hope this answers your question!

Answer 6

25 the earliest 45 the oldest..

Answer 7

I think 23 at the youngest and 40 as the oldest. Maturity levels are more likely to be stable at 23 and a baby at 40 puts you in the late 50s when that child is able to be legally on its own.

Answer 8

I dont think there is any "right" age to have a child. Some women are more mature and ready at an early age while others might be in their 40s and not ready at all. The only thing I would not recommend is telling women to wait until they are in their 30s. Many women who wait that long often have difficulty conceiving and some begin menopause when they are in their mid-to-late 30s. I had a child when I was 30 years old and tried for another a couple of years later. It took several years but I was able to do it. After that, I was never pregnant again. By this time, I was in my mid-30s and I now believe I was in the early stages of menopause. One symptom was how easy it was for me to avoid becoming pregnant. I really didnt have to do anything special.

Answer 9

I believe anywhere from 25 to 40 is the best time to have children. I had my first at 31. I wish I would have started earlier. Now Im under a lot of pressure to have another child. My personal cutoff is 35. Other women can have children when they are older than that, but for me personally, I do not think I will have the energy required to care for children at age 40.

Answer 10

35!!!! lol
