Having
Children while Young
Some couples choose to have
babies between their 20’s to 30’s, others wait much longer until 40's or later. Many
people say that being a parent is a full time job that needs extra energy and
patience. Because childhood is the best time of life, young parents want to
give their young energy to bring up their children. However, having children
early has advantages and disadvantages.

On the plus side, young parents
have full energy to for bringing up their children. For instance, they can play
together with kids even when the activities are very hard such as running and
playing basketball. Another point is that when the child grows up, parents are
still young and remember their own teenage years. It’s very helpful to know
them and become the best friend for their children. The other positive aspect
is usually men as the husbands will be more serious to work. It is an
encouragement for them because they must give financial support for the kids.
The most important thing is the risk of pregnancy for a young woman is smaller than
an older one. Research shows that having a baby in the old age is riskier to
failure or illness such as premature birth and Down syndrome. Otherwise, women who get pregnant at a young age can detect health problems
early so they can be treated sooner.
However, there are also
disadvantages. One disadvantage is that the young parents don’t have enough
experiences to raise their kids. In fact, raising kids requires various knowledge
and a lot of patience. It is not easy! Young parents need to look for more
information and seek a consultant to help them if they get serious problem. Moreover,
they must put their children as their top priority and spend most of their time
nurturing them. This means that they will lose their free time to do what they
want. Last of all, young parents might not have enough money to fund their children,
so some couples choose to be parents after settle their careers have finished and
have plenty of saving.
In conclusion, there are pros and
cons to having children while young. However, children are from God. Human can
only make plans and take the best available choice for them. Although some
couples may think that to be a parent in young age is not easy, I think it is
depend on each person condition and their preparation.

learn from friends who already have kids and read about parenting too. We also join parent communities to
discuss about the best parenting way. Of course, we also have to save our money
to the baby’s future.
