Up to you. Generally a person needs to be able to support themselves adequately before they can have kids. Not always, there’s always social assistance, but personally living on social assistance I choose not to pursue children. Theres always an instinct calling out for it but im not so interested in it.

The way it is with most people these days is that they dont want to have kids while they are young, so they put it off until they are older. THen when they get older they realize it wouldve been easier for them to have them when they were young. Both in the practical sense and that they would have had more energy to deal with them.

Ah these little DNA packages are expensive and take a lot of you. Totally worth it for all the memories and bond you have with them though.
