Tired of people in the comments shaming the caller for having a kid at 22. By the way he’s concerned, it was probably unplanned (as many pregnancies are). He’s smart enough to ask Dave for help and living frugally (ex: living with parents temporarily, paying off debts, accepting he needs to work more), which is probably unlike half the people in the comments currently that just load up their credit cards. Props to this guy, he’ll be a great father

Yeah but a lot of times if the guy is scared to be a father, than more times than not, he'll end up leaving and doesn't want to man up and face the responsibility of being a father. You're an exception and there isn't a lot of examples of guys like you sadly being scared of being a dad, but man up and still father their child. so good job on your part for manning up and excepting your responsibilities.

My one full time job at the time didn't cover child care so i got a second job delivering pizzas then realized I'll make more tips and not kill my car doing valet at the local casino. I made enough in tips to cover daycare and take truck driving lessons to get my CDL fast forward five yrs to today I have a great career that pays great, day care is over I'm almost debt free and the kid is still in one piece lol you'll be alright you can do it

Anybody who thinks they are ready for parenting is fooling themselves. Every day with every child is a fresh challenge, but it is rewarding like nothing else. And every now and then you have a day when you think you must be doing alright.

If you plan on having biological kids, I think it is ideal to start having biological kids somewhere in-between 25 years and 34 years of age. That is the generally age frame where people have been out of school for quite a while, developed significant work experience, and are generally more financial stable than young adults at ages 18 to 24, possibly financially stable enough to have kids; but they are also not too old and their biological child is less likely to have any developmental, mental, or physical problems than biological children of parents who are at least 35 years old. But if people want to have biological kids as young adults (like the kid in the video) or wait until later in life to have kids, then that's their choice.

I’m not sure about 100% ready, but it’s better to be prepared. Having a kid in your early 20’s is just not smart. Better to wait till about 30 when you’re hopefully out of debt have a house and have a wife. Here you’re prepared but still maybe not a 100% ready but in good shape to have a kid
