No one seems to add those 18 years to their planned start date. And everyone assumes it's the first 3 years that are the hardest, when down the road, the big and nasty surprise is that 13 (for girls) and 15 (for boys) will take it out of you in ways you never imagined (or you would never have begun). Believe me, you don't want to be of an age to be getting Social Secuity when your darling children reach this beloved and charming stage of life.
But, oh well, 30 is the new 20 they say! I have every faith in Jen and Greg ... they will not grow old at the standard rate.

Well, if we're indulging in this silliness, you don't want to have kids too early because then you give them the pleasure of dealing with your decline while they're drawing Social Security.
