Nowadays, more and more people decide to have children later in their life. What are the reasons? Do advantages of this outweigh disadvantages?

Opinions differ when it comes to whether or not parents should have babies

later
in their life. While
this
has several benefits, I believe that overall the drawbacks are greater. Admittedly, having children late allows parents to provide their youngsters better living conditions. In contemporary society, many couples decide to focus on their careers
instead
of having babies early.
This
decision might allow them to earn a decent job before they embark on parenthood.
In other words
, by the time their children are born, they are safe in the knowledge that they would not face any financial problems. Take my sister

and her husband as an example. They both agreed that their career should be prioritized to build a stable financial background for child-rearing.
Therefore
, they delayed their parenthood until 10 years after their marriage just to make sure their children grow up in good conditions. Despite the benefit mentioned above, I believe that having babies late cause detrimental effects. The chief

reason is that
parents who have babies late could hardly understand their children. It is the generation gap that

those parents from fathoming their children.
In other words
, their obsolete way of thinking could not be applied to their children.
This
issue creates considerable distance between parents and their children.
As a result
, children might neglect the instruction of their parents and tend to become recalcitrant people.
In contrast
, if the generation gap is not too big, parents could articulate their thoughts to the children easily.
As a result
, they would easily find a suitable way to educate their children properly. In conclusion, I believe that having children late in life has more problems than benefits. It is
therefore
important that parents should consider the option of having babies early in their life.
