The answer is "social' clock of her generation.

This took my mind to the phrase "my clock is ticking.” This is a case of a social clock which is a social particular timetable for occasions to happen. Occasions incorporate marriage, having kids, and so on. For instance, in a few societies it is normal that individuals be married in their youngsters.
