Some people choose to have their first child at an older age. What are the reasons? Do
advantages outweigh disadvantages

Bài mẫu band 8+

There is a growing proportion of the world’s population who decide to have children later in
life. The underlying reasons for this trend are varied, and I suppose that the merits would
eclipse the downsides.

There are two main factors leading to the decision of delaying childbirth. The first one is
because people have the propensity for prioritizing their careers over taking parental roles.
Especially in the US and other developed countries, not only men but also women want to
stabilize their finance before becoming parents so as to provide their kids with sufficient
living condition for their future development. Another explanation for this is that many
modern individuals have adopted a fear of taking unwanted custody due to the recent
alarming rate of divorce. It is because premature marriages have become common, which
usually goes with many couples’ doubt of their marital harmony, deterring their early desire
for raising a child. There would be, consequently, fewer kids growing up without fatherhood
or motherhood.

However, the drawbacks should not be overlooked. That too many couples following such a
trend might exert adverse effects on the population structure, which potentially results in
the future aging workforce and hinders social development in the long term.Additionally, it
could both heighten the possibility of infertility among mothers at their old age and risk the
new-born babies’ mental and physical health. Down Syndrome could be a typical example of
the problems that those kids might have to suffer from.

In conclusion, the occupational prioritization and the hesitation over the likelihood of
single-parent responsibility could be seen as the root of late childbirth, and I am convinced
that the advantages are of more significance.
