Interesting, the first seven posters had a dad who was older than their mom. I know that men marry later than women, but I was surprised that the breakdown here was that large.

They certainly are. Together they have three kids: me (almost 24), my brother (almost 21), and my sister (18). This is my dad's second marriage, so I also have two older half brothers, ages almost 44 and 39.

Most interestingly, my oldest half brother is actually older than my mother by about 4 months.

I understand how that works. I have an older half-sister who is a great-grandmother. BTW, my dad is still living, so he counts as a great-great-grandfather.

I'm surprised by the number of folks whose parents were over the age of 35 when they had kids.

As for me:

Mom was 32, Dad was 31.

I was expecting the average to be a bit less than that, but it's actually higher. I wonder what the population mean is (I would guess late 20s, but maybe not).

Haha, weird!  I don't know if I know many people in a situation like ours (not like it really affects us at all...)

My dad was born on April 10th, 1961 and my mom was born on May 30th, 1960.  I was born on May 12th, so my parents were actually the same age when I was born.

Pat, are you talking here about your biological dad or your stepdad?

At what point did you cease to have any relationship with your biological dad?

I saw Ghostbusters at 5-6 years old and that was the last of Natural Dad.  My Real Dad is 6 years older than my mom.
