Fatherhood

More and more Somali women are getting married in their late 20s early 30s. I'm not saying its a good thing as many would have loved to have married earlier, but many marry still decent Abdis.

I have a few cousins as well who have married late and their husbands are far from bums.

Their are many reasons for this but the main one is young women now don't want to settle for a guy that they now isn't right for them. With more fertility treatments and improvement in womens healthcare many don't feel the rush.
 
Prove that using data. It seems like you just want to rant loool for whoever offened you, I apologise.


How does a mother’s age influence the odds of having a child with autism?
Overall, researchers have conducted fewer studies of maternal age and autism, and the results are not as clear-cut as they are for fathers. The effects of maternal age are more difficult to detect in epidemiological studies because women have children over a narrower age range than do men.

Some studies have suggested that a woman’s chance of having a child with autism also increases steadily with age. The number of de novo mutations in egg cells increases with age, although to a lesser degree than it does in sperm.


I'm not angry lol. I merely feel lied to. All this time men talking about 30+ women and autism, when there are more conclusive studies showing that autusm and male age!
 
The wasn't my point, the first picture was. The second one was supplementary but you decided to focus on it.

The second one was illustrating that age affects women's reproduction more. You said it's the same for men and women, men don't get to a point (menopause), where they can't reproduce anymore. That's why we see it as different for men and women.

It’s the multiple jumpoffs, fucking that airhead club , asking for a cocktail of STDs freshly served with lime, fucking on the first night after a Tinder date niggas that wonder why their baby ends up with a cleft lip & cystic fibrosis. But they wanna blame it on their devout Church girl :deadmanny:
who the heck is talking about virginity or immorality in here? You literally brought that out of nowhere. Did you even read what this thread is about?

Because I thought it’s about the risks to a child depending on the ages of the parent when giving birth.

It would take a quick stats lesson to explain to you why those results don't mean much which I cba to do.

But, from the link you posted : " Even so, the absolute chance of having a child with autism is low even for the oldest parents."

Relative increases don't mean much when the probability is already extremely low.

Its the same for women, if not lower yet men love to use the autism card on women.

Also, by age 40 the risks are much higher. In fact by 45 you have a 14% chance of premature birth.


The fact of the matter is, the risks are low for both genders.

Ok, so you don't even believe any of the statements you've made in this thread. Like I said, it seems like someone said something insensitive and you took offence.

No, i was reminded of a thread someone made about having children in their late 20s and early 30s when I saw this study, which is completely healthy and women in those age brackets are fertile, yet many of the posters here were throwing around autism.
I found it rather ironic considering the fact there are more conclusive studies on fathers age and autism.

Data from more than 40 million births showed that babies born to fathers of an “advanced paternal age,” which roughly equates to older than 35, were at a higher risk for adverse birth outcomes"



Why do we always talk about women, when men are also affected?

Age is definitely a contributing factor, but let’s not ignore how detrimental it is for the baby when the father’s been sleeping around & contracting STDs to the point where some don’t even know they have it.

You do know having chlamydia so many times could make one infertile? Herpes & HIV symptoms do not show up sometimes after a whole & if the father impregnates the mother during this time, the baby will contract it too & have health issues.

What is wrong with you? This post is specifically about age and gender. As in if an old dad has the same risks as an old mom (older than 40).

You brought up STD’s out of nowhere, then have the audacity to make it seem like men where blaming the “modest church wife”?

Not to mention no one on this site would get near someone with an STD let alone have children with them. So you bringing it up is not only derailing & confusing, but it’s also quite redundant. No one is “ignoring” the detriment of STI’s

Yeah because a man would willingly admit that he’s had STDs or that he currently has one :snoop:

When they're talking about the fertility women not their egg mutations in their later year

Look peak fertility is what men of all ages find most attractive

You're missing the point. We are talking about women in their 30s. Women in their 30s are still fertile. I'm not talking about 45+ women.

There is more conclusive evidence that shows us that there is a greater link between male age and autism than women. Yet, men love to talk about autism when women who are older get pregnant.

Fertility itself isn't the topic here.

There is research fo show autism is also related to having an older dad. But sure there’s more direct issues with older mums. That’s because a woman’s eggs are produced form birth ( so degradation can happen over time). Men produce sperm every few days so it’s more ‘fresh’, BUT as they age their ability to produce healthy sperm also deteriorates.

Regardless, raising a child and being an attentive parent takes time and energy. Why would anyone purposely wanna be an old dad - just because they can be. Allahs knows best whose going first but we can assume with age comes closeness to ill health and death.So why would you voluntarily inflict a sick old parent on your child. Burdening them at a young age with looking after you, or even worse being left alone in the world. Zero sense.

It’s sensible for both men and women to have kids relatives young.

It's best to have children while people are still young but are somewhat established enough that they can afford a baby.
 
"Still, these numbers aren’t reason to drastically change any life plans, as the risks are still relatively low, Eisenberg said. He compared the increased risks to buying lottery tickets. “If you buy two lottery tickets instead of one, your chances of winning double, so it’s increased by 100 percent,” he said. “But that’s a relative increase. Because your chance of winning the lottery started very small, it’s still unlikely that you’re going to win the lottery. This is a very extreme example, but the same concept can be applied to how you think about these birth risks. "

It's like going from a 0.001% chance to a 0.0023% chance - I don't think you can compare the two, tbh.
Got them quick
