Reply to comment by Wagamaga in Research finds people who are married have a lower risk of developing dementia after the age of 70 than those who are unmarried or divorced. Previous studies suggest that being married later in life protects against dementia, and that being single in old age increases the risk of dementia by Wagamaga
>The increased risk of dementia for unmarried people could largely be attributed to childlessness.
Still not having kids. Thanks researchers.

I’m pretty sure I read a study recently that claimed stress increases dementia risk. Kids=stress

Maybe young kids but by the time they get older its alot less stress.

I think it depends, I caused my parents tons of stress until I hit my late 20’s due to my health issues and anxiety disorder. Never know what situation your child will be in.

True though my sister had alot of health issues but my parents had little to no anxitey but thats also just thier personality. They arent very stressed out people.
