Kids no kids anedi emi undadu ani na opinion it’s zeal and where you want to be . Kids undi phd chestunnavallu unnaru . Mana laziness ki we search for excuses . For some money is motivation for some recognition. Zeal unnavadu emunna chaduvukuntadu progress avutaru . 

Kids and tenure track is hell, especially balancing a ticking a biological clock, a flip side is losing tenure.

Men don’t have the bio clock problem no...

That's why there are very few female professors in Universities. 

Most of the school teachers are female.  If they are able to manage then what’s the problem that is preventing females from continuing as professors. The reason can’t be bio clock alone.

You have no idea what it takes to be a professor do you? It takes an intense PhD, an intense postdoc, and the most intense tenure track, which lasts for 5 years where in you're an assistant professor, and you need to bring in few million dollars in research budget to be able to secure tenure. After that, you become an associate professor where in you need to establish yourself as the leader in the field to be able to become a full professor. Let's say you finish your PhD in your late 20s, you start being an assistant professor aka tenure track early 30s. So, most people struggle to manage students, secure funding, run a lab, publish results, all in a span of 5 years. Men won't need to take time off to have babies, so they can have as many as they want. But women can't afford to loose time if they want to get tenured. So, most female professors have kids after getting a tenure, usually late 30s, so they are fighting against a ticking biological clock, while struggling to get tenure.

It varies broadly, these are the statistics apparently.

A PhD takes twice as long as a bachelor's degree to complete. The average student takes 8.2 years to slog through a PhD program and is 33 years old before earning that top diploma.
