Why would young couples have more energy with communicating and devloping skills with there kids?

They've actually done studies into this and reckon they've proved it's true to a certain extent. Apparently older couples are so much more 'set in their ways' and used to being selfish (don't mean that detrimentally, just that they are accustomed to being relatively 'freer' - just go where they want, when they want etc). They struggle to adapt to the needs of a baby.





Always exceptions to the rules :)Why would young couples have more energy with communicating and devloping skills with there kids?
I don't agree that they do. My husband and I, ages 35 and 37, have a 22 month old daughter. We spend ALOT of time with her. She was a preemie and has progressed almost to the point of catching up developmentally with her peers. I'm not sure if that we would have been mature enough to handle her situation and work with her ten or fifteen years ago as well as we have now.Why would young couples have more energy with communicating and devloping skills with there kids?
I don't really think it is a young or older question. I've seen really good parents in both age ranges. I think the key is patience, consistency and a willingness to share your life but the most important skill is to remember you as well.
Um could it be... because they are young? Could be.
