Of course there are better situations, there's just no perfect situation. Your advice entails people should have kids in high school with their sweetheart if they want to. That's obviously wrong.

At worst their advice is just as wrong as the conventional wisdom they're contradicting.

I would say that the major factor isn't age, it's situation. If you are in a stable relationship with someone who can help financially and emotionally support an additional human, having a child could be an option.

If you are in a precarious situation, do not bring another human into it.
