I believe sometime around 40, kids tend to have a lot of problems (retardation, downs syndrome, etc.). Biologically, humans are designed to have kids when they are younger. Waiting to long is really bad.

The age to be safe is 35. You can have a child, but the risk of it having a genetic deformity is slightly greater as you age.
