And there are ao many factors to consider when you're thinking about having them. I'm actually in a place where I can consider having them because I'm finally in a place where A) I'm financially stable, B) I'm emotionally mature enough, and C) I have a support system including a partner who would be a great parent, and D) whose family I would love to bring my kids around. The cruel irony is that I didn't have all of those things until I reached my late 30s, and now I only have a few more years to both decide I want kids and do it.
