How old is your oldest child?

My eldest child is 45 and older grandchild 11

My DD is 9. I’m 52.

54, born when I was 26. Oldest gc 20.

My eldest daughter will be 40, next daughter 36 and my Son 35! I remember being 35 and that seemed only yesterday.Grandchildren 16 to 5.

Daughter is 40 and son 37....as others have said I was a child bride!

My son is 33, daughter is 31. Grandsons are 7, 5 (DD) and 1 (DS).

My DSs ages are 42, 39 and 37.
2 DGC with DS1 are aged 3.5 and 1.5, and another on the way with DS2.
So, yes it seems our children are settling down and having their families older than our generation.

My name says it all = I was born in 1933 = married in 1954 - my children born in 1956 and 1961 - I married a second time and inherited 4 stepchildren. So I added all the grandchildren of both families - hence 12. We do all keep in touch by email - imagine writing letters to everyone not to mention all the various cards.

My elder son is far too old. I must have been a child bride. I've duly threatened him against telling anyone his age.

Eldest 38, youngest 32, eldest grandchild 8 this year.

My oldest is 46 and coming up to her silver wedding next year! How??? Still my 90 year old aunt told me it doesn't really hit you till your daughter is 60!

My DD is nearly 56 . I was a child bride
My DS is 50. Two DGDs
, 14 and 11

Mine are 35, 34, 33 and 32.
Grandchild no 5 all set to join us in July.

Naninka your post made me declare "oh my!"
Bet you didn't have time to think!

My eldest son is 62 this year, then my daughter will be 58 in May, the next son 57 in July and the baby will be 50 in July. I told my eldest son that he could not possibly be mine as he now lives in sheltered accommodation, he has retired early and I am definitely not old enough to have a son who fits that criteria. He just laughed

My eldest is 57 and youngest 40. There was a big gap between first and second and between third and fourth. 9 grandchildren range from 9 months up to 22 years.

Children 57, 55,50,50 and 46. Grandchildren 35, 33,31 and 28.GGC 12, 8 ,8,5 and 3

My eldest is 68 in June and is a gran herself. Elder son is 67 in June and younger son is 58!

I am a very old oldie as I will be 87 in June and read the obituaries in the newspapers to see how old people were on death and think I have been lucky!

I live away from UK because of Covid and I am 5 hours behind UK so my post is often the last. I do enjoy Gransnet daily!

As every has already said where has the years gone?
When we moved to this house I was 3 months off my fourtieth birthday.
Next year my son will be fourty.
My daughter will be 36 at the end of this year.

My grandsons are 5,6 and 7.

The birthday that amazes me, my baby Sister will be 54 this July.
I remember the day she came home from the maternity hospital.

A difficult birthday for my sister, she will be the same age as our mum was when she died.

Carpe diem

My elder son wil be 56 on 1st April. The only birthday I never forget. Next son is 10 years younger, he and wife, aged 40 are expecting their second child in June. I never expected two new grandchildren in my eighties..Just sad to think I will have no idea how they turn out, but nice to be buying children's and baby gifts.

My daughter will be 52 in May, the others 47 and 45 o'h er
