By the time Colin was a teenager, his father was very frail. He had muscle wastage in one leg, which meant he couldn’t get around the golf course any more. Colin says, “As I grew up, he had to walk slower and slower. I’d slow down, too – I didn’t want him to feel bad – but we reached a point where, if I slowed down any more, I would have been standing still. And there was no disguising that. Once, he said to me, ‘Do you think I’m decrepit?’”

Headlines tend to focus on older mothers rather than on older fathers, because while the average age continues to rise, they are more unusual: 0.3% of babies born in England and Wales in 2013 had mothers 45 and over, whereas 4.8% had fathers of the same age.Nate has been with Collider since August 2021 and became a Resource Editor in March 2022.

I want to go travelling and have adventures and different jobs before starting a family. My parents were more financially stable, and their relationship was stronger because they had been together longer before they had me – I think it’s been a good thing.”

Comedian Bill Burr makes his directorial debut in Old Dads, a movie about parenthood, friendship, and one man’s bad temper. (If you’re not familiar with Burr’s comedy specials, the comedian frequently jokes about his anger issues.) The movie follows three best friends who become dads later in life and have a hard time navigating a changing world — and letting go of the ’80s. These days, I speak to him nearly every day. He’ll describe a lampshade he’s got his eye on in the local charity shop, or remind me of the time he saved my life when I was a baby, by taking a semi-deflated balloon out of my mouth, or come up with names for the salt beef bar he’d set up if he had his time again. He does make very good salt beef. My father was also evacuated during the war. As a child, he would play with the service medal his father was given after the first world war, aged 24. My father and Caroline’s were raised not in the 60s, like our friends’ parents, but in the 30s – and a gap of two generations creates a real cultural gulf. I was told children should be seen and not heard, which seems Victorian to me now – though when Dad was born, George V was on the throne. None of us can claim to speak for all children of older fathers, and I would not want to suggest that older fathers are better than younger fathers; but there has long been an assumption that the reverse is true. The first result that pops up on Google when you search for “older fathers” is an article dispiritingly titled Children Born To Older Fathers Are More Likely To Be Ugly. But it gets more serious than that. Before Caroline Welling was born, her parents struggled to conceive and decided to adopt. Her father was 60, and the only country that would allow them to adopt was Peru. As soon as the adoption went through and baby Luisa moved in, her mother became pregnant naturally with Caroline.ADDA DADA's photography presents a variety of adults at different public events .

Enjoy my social documentary photos of various events ! Although there is no upper age limit for adoption in the UK, guidance says that agencies will not usually consider an age gap of more than 45 years between child and adoptive parent. Of course, all children need stability – and this goes for adopted children perhaps more than for others – but for all the fuss about older parents, age is just one risk factor when it comes to life and death. No parent can honestly promise to be there for his or her child, regardless of when they conceive. I watch my cousins and friends who have lost fathers younger than mine, and I feel guilty, and grateful, that he is still here. I think my dad does, too. But they also show me that the relationship between father and child cannot be measured in years spent together. That’s not how love works. When I was a child, he never showed his feelings. Now he kisses and cuddles his grandsons all the time Hemal Rajani
