I think it really comes down to the campus, the sorority, and most critically, the PNM.

In my case, we were an all local sorority system, all local but one fraternity system, plus NPHC chapters. A mixed commuter/residential school.

Otterbein had a number of post-military students who tend to be older (late 20's to early 30's), and some of these students have made fantastic brothers and sisters, despite pledging later in life. These older students are also likely to be married/divorced or have a child...and if they're taking care of their responsibilities and are able to support the missions of the brother/sisterhood, then why are they not worthy of membership?

Again, a kid isn't going to push me into the "no, absolutely not!" category any more than a job or an internship or a pending study abroad stint. A terrible personality, inability to manage time, lack of empathy etc, will. Life and sorority are not exclusive, they're meant to compliment each other.
