    I thought the same. I wonder, if there has been a shift, if it’s related to a general trend of starting families later in life, too. Does it hit as their kids grow up and become independent?

      I can’t speak for anyone else but at 40 I’m very keenly aware that I’m halfway or over it already.

      I swear there was an episode of an old show like one day at a time or something where it talked about someone having a midlife crises and they said. that can’t be im only 35 and they were like most people live to seventy something so that is midlife.
