I disagree.
What's wrong with starting again if it's what she TRULY wants?
And, no, she should not be thinking about grandchildren by now. I'm 46 and mentioned to a good friend that I feel incomplete because I always thought I would have 2 or 3 kids and a stable marriage by now. She said I'm ready to be a grandma now.
Being a grandmother at my age had never crossed my mind and it really upset me. I was insulted.
If you're in the frame of mind to be a mom and someone tells you that you should be a grandmother, it's not cool.
With that being said, Hamster, I think more than a day's worth of thought should go into something like this.
On the other hand, if I was involved in a relationship that felt right, I would have another baby in a heartbeat even though I am 46.
