I'm almost 40 and never quite managed to get into amateur radio, but my kids are getting old enough that they might be interested. Reading articles like this gets me excited to finally give it a try.
do it! you can get started with some cheap SDR stuff to "see" whats out there. I you want to participate it is really a great hobby. I can't wait until my daughters can participate.
the average age of ham operators is well above 50s. You still have time for yourself! I'd love to get more involved, just don't have the time. Some of the best ways of getting kids involved is local DX events.
