No words for such folks
Lileks deploys the Perry Head today, on a deserving target.
I had my kid at 28, and I'm not likely to have another now that I'm a tad over 40, but can't quite grasp why a forty year old mother/father is "disgusting" to anyone, or why the young x-gens dismiss offspring produced in mature adulthood as "purse-dogs."
That reminds me - I found this young canid version of the Perry Head...

A silent appraisal of children as purse-dog remarks.
