<p>If my kids end up wandering I will eat my yoga mat.</p>
<p>We have actively discouraged any notion of returning to home base and we have actively encouraged maximum fuel burn for the early to late twenties–the pre-kid years. The notion that there are years to spare wandering around is rubbish in our opinions. That’s why they had Gap Years. 22? Time to get on with it.</p>
<p>I will also eat my mat if they remain unmarried, given all the falling in love that has happened all over the place from the age of 16. They both will make great husbands (great dad) and plenty of bright girls seem to be switched on to that secret.</p>
<p>also, I don’t have girls but from my professional perspective, girls have absolutely NO time to wander in their twenties if they want a professional career–and the option to have children before 30. I would never sell a girl that option.</p>
