I'm 38 and that crossroads is coming closer to me.
I'd like a kid or two, but my life has been shit up until this point and I want to see the world before I have them.
Thing is, once that is satisfied, I may be too old...

It doesn't have to be bad.
I had a kid at 45. Now we are traveling the world TOGETHER. Seeing your kid experience the wonderment is better than seeing it alone. He's been to 13 countries and 12(?) States.
Do you remember the first time you saw a bear?
Probably not. I don't.
But I remember watching my kid see his first bear. We were in Yellowstone last week and he is yelling, ITS A BEAR! ITS A BEAR, DAD! A BEAR! A GRIZZLY! LOOK! LOOK! LOOK!
I spent all day with him yesterday. Took him to BJJ early. Went to Home Depot where we built a haunted house project. Then to the grocery store, and then we sat down and played 99 nights in the forest where he finally finished the game. Then we read a book at bedtime. He ran in and woke me up this morning yelling some Roblox shit.
It's way better than you think.
