Anyways, he has 2 sons, 1 is 13 and 1 is 21.My question is if his son the 21 years old has kids before me and his dad do, do you think that would be weird. Because technically my husband could have a grandson older than his future daughter...? I'm not so concerned about people judging us about it, I just wonder if it would cause problems for our future son or daughter. What do you think? Reply to this Question Share |

I can cope with this, and really wish them all the best, (my 40 year old mum also had a baby in december, so i'm used to the tiny sibling situation.) However, I plan to have children at 23 or 24 and really don't want my parents to continue procreating after that. Honestly, it seems a bit wrong. I'm sure if it happened, i'd deal with it, but i'd rather not have to. I want my parents to be able to differentiate between being parents and grandparents. My advice would be to have your children as soon as possible, and so avoid the situation! good luck x

I went to school with a guy whose aunt was in the same year as him. It wasnt weird for them at all. In fact a lot of people found it rather fascinating and a hot topic for conversation. And not a topic of conversation in a bad way, but it gave rise to some rather interesting mature conversations when they were older.
Besides, who gives a monkey about what other people think! The kids just need to be bought up by two parents who love them knowing that they were conceived in love. Whether they go to school with their aunts, neices, nephews or whoever, bring them up to stand up for what they believe in.

Everyone is different and unique, so maybe some people might comment on the oddity of it, but if youre happy and your kids are happy and loved, its nothing to worry about hun!!
Hope this helps you feel better about it!
hugs
