@WashedOutGundamPilot Looking at the vast majority of how women spend their 20s, she really did not miss out on anything. Those "carefree" years would be spent on nothing of value, and she most likely would have bailed and whored out.
What she did get was something many women miss out on, having a family to call her own and be proud of. And with so many women going baby-crazy in their 30s when they are still single, she got a much better deal.
