USA Today has a story about Baby Boomers and their regrets. most of them are about money: (we didn’t save enough) or about health (I should have used more sunscreen and exercised more.)
As a BB’er myself (born in 1953), let me add something to the discussion: I regret that I spent so many years of my married life contracepting. My husband agrees, BTW, and he’s not Catholic.
We wish we had started trying to have kids sooner, and that we had had the chance to have more kids.
Young people: what do you think you will regret in your fifties?
Never mind the sunscreen.
