True to a certain extent, Divya...but it depends more on the individual...my daughter has a friend who got married last year...she is a bit older than her classmates for whatever reason...I think she is about twenty one...and she has gone ahead and had a child this year...so, if you are a career-minded person, you might choose a career...but if you are not inclined towards that, you might end up starting a family..! Of course, family situation and financial circumstances have a great role to play here..in some cases, people choose not to have children immediately because they can't afford it...they prefer to work for a bit, save some money and then think of a child...so, I guess it is a combination of factors that go to influencing this decision...
Of course there are the DINKs...the double income no kid couples...where both partners are working and they have simply decided not to have a child!
