When is the best age to become a father?

[summie]

It's been suggested that
a person isn't fully mature as an adult
until the age of 26 and I think...
I would agree with that.

So my answer would be...
anytime from 26 onwards would be a good age
to become a father provided everything to make
that conducive is in place of course.

What's your say?

I think it depends on the individual - I know many men in their 30's who are far from mature enough to take on the responsibility of being a dad. Yet there are other men who are in their early 20s and they take to fatherhood really well.

You need to remember though that children put immense strain and pressure on relationships so regardless of age, a strong relationship with your partner is essential.

Personally, I've found that being fit and healthy is a must to keep up with the constant attention the kids need, regardless of my age!
