I know what you are saying. I mean, I wouldn’t want my mother to be 70 when I am turning 10.
August 31st, 2011 at 12:18 pm
its not fair on the baby, it wont grow up to know who she is
August 31st, 2011 at 12:54 pm
i think its awful. when their children are 10, they will be 70 and thats kind of a ridiculous age to look after kids. they wouldnt get the right kind of parent.
August 31st, 2011 at 12:58 pm
let’s just hope she can provide for the kid’s future and not risk the health of the baby or herself.
August 31st, 2011 at 1:53 pm
1)going against nature
2)By the time the child turns 20 the mother dies.
August 31st, 2011 at 1:57 pm
EWW
i think its personally disgusting
when the childs in its mid-teeens she will be visitin the mom, not in a nursing home, but a graveyard
August 31st, 2011 at 2:18 pm
She’s selfish, only thinking about her own wants.
August 31st, 2011 at 2:29 pm
i think it is fine. my only concern is if something happen to the mom who will care for the baby.
i think everyone should let her be happy. she is just now getting to have the joy of having a baby. there is nothing better in life than that.
August 31st, 2011 at 3:02 pm
Pure selfishness. She aint going to live long enough to see her child reach adulthood.
August 31st, 2011 at 3:59 pm
I feel bad for the child because the mother probably won’t be around to see them get married or go to anything important in their life.
August 31st, 2011 at 4:48 pm
the woman wont live to see her daughter grow and wont be able to look after her. i think its so much worse than teen pregnancy as she using tablets to keep her hormones working. it just wrong !! and not fair on the child…. xx
August 31st, 2011 at 4:50 pm
I don’t think its right. Tbh i think its sick. I would be imbarrased to have a mum of that age. You would obviosl want the best for your children and being skit etc isnt going the right way.
August 31st, 2011 at 5:37 pm
and she’s single. poor kid will probably end up in an orphanage by the time it’s ten.
August 31st, 2011 at 5:59 pm
well God is the creator of live if he blesses a woman to have a baby which is a gift from him it does not matter what age she is
some woman never experience the gift of childbirth at any age so i say what ever God has planned for that child is his will and the mother is blessed to still have the ability to bare children.
August 31st, 2011 at 6:13 pm
If her doctor gave her the go ahead for success delivering a healthy baby- that’s one thing – but statistics show children born to older moms are many times born with serious heath issues. She should adopt or take in orphans.
August 31st, 2011 at 7:00 pm
yes i agree with you..i mean you’ve had around 40 odd years to get yourself pregnant and you want to do it unnaturally..
August 31st, 2011 at 7:04 pm
I think she will make a better mother than some 15 yr old school kid on a council estate that gets pregnant and lets the government pay for it. At least she has enough income to support the child and its future, who knows it might grow up to become the person who knows how to cure cancer. Give the child a chance in life.
August 31st, 2011 at 7:53 pm
It’s not the sort of thing I would undertake. From my understanding the egg comes from a younger donor, so there’s not such a great risk there regarding genetic defects etc. The lady concerned is a wealthy business woman, so I take it she has a good head on her shoulders and she will have plans put in progress for the welfare of the child should anything happen to her.
No doubt she will also be able to afford any help she needs regarding the raising of the child. Looking around me there are many grandparents bringing up their grand-children whilst parents are working so is this really any different?
August 31st, 2011 at 8:46 pm
I dont think its right
My mother was 40 when she had me and i can remember being quite embarrassed as a teenager that she was so much older than my friends mums
how is this child going to feel with a mother of 80 at age 14 apart from all the health issues and the fact that she may not live to see the child reach teenage years
I think she is being irresponsible and very selfish
August 31st, 2011 at 8:57 pm
If it’s healthy, who cares?
Did anyone raise a stink about the age thing when Tony Randall had a kid in his 70s? Or countless other men who have had children after they were well into their “golden years?”
August 31st, 2011 at 9:51 pm
I think that it is extremely selfish for a woman to have a baby over 60. The child will have to look after the Mum when they are children. It places a heavy burden on the child and crushes them when the Mother passes away. They will hardly know the mother and will have to live in life alone through hardships (if the father is the same age). They will not have the advice of the mother. It is therefore selfish and so I am against woman having children over 60.
August 31st, 2011 at 10:11 pm
I think that it isn’t right for the child or the mother who is old enough to be that child’s grandmother. It’s obviously too late now but in the future how will the child cope when they compare their parents with other childrens?
August 31st, 2011 at 11:06 pm
This is far too old to have a baby — as nature knows. The natural way of things is for a mother to have enough energy to cope with the demands of motherhood and to survive until her child can lead an independent life. Best of all is when her own parents can survive for long enough to play a meaningful role in the child’s life. This mother says that she doesn’t need to justify herself to anyone, but she will have to justify herself to the child. What will her child feel at having an old lady meeting her at the school gate and attending school functions with her, whom she calls mother rather than grandmother? It would be unusual indeed if she didn’t suffer from all kinds of hang-ups as a result.
I have a cousin who was born to parents who were relatively old, but nothing near as old as this mother. Because they were older parents, they doted on her and indulged her and she was not disciplined properly. She was ashamed of them. Her mother died when she was young and her poor father, when he visited her at university, wasn’t even allowed to call himself her grandfather — he had to be her “great uncle”. She grew into an appalling adult.
Both mother and child will suffer here. Although the mother feels fit and sometimes as young as 39 years old, her body knows better. How will she cope with what is likely to be a very awkward teenager, who is rude to her when she is 80 years plus? How will the child cope with all those conflicting feelings, which nobody else around her will be able to identify with?
I happened to read a feature on this subject earlier today and can agree thoroughly with the sentiments it expresses. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/family/5345587/Fit-for-a-baby-at-66-Dont-kid-yourself.html
August 31st, 2011 at 11:08 pm
I have no particular opinion only that the woman has all the right to have a baby at whatever age she wants to have it. I do not understand why there is such a commotion about it.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:06 am
I think that is nasty .
Why would you want have baby at 60 knowing you going die in a couple of years to me that seems like your being rude .
September 1st, 2011 at 12:36 am
I am in my 50′s and still can’t wait until the day I don’t have a period anymore! This menopause I’m going through is not fun so when I hear about a woman in her 60′s having a baby, I start getting worried that I might carry my own menopause way into my 60′s!! I don’t know if I could handle that.! LOL LOL, oh no!
September 1st, 2011 at 12:54 am
I agree with you. I think it is the height of selfishness. I know most people don’t agree, but I think 40 is too old. I have so many friends and relatives who had babies in their 40s. I don’t get that. But 60+??? Nuts. A DJ once summed it up by saying that these parents will be looking for a nursing home with a good high school one day!
September 1st, 2011 at 1:30 am
For everything there is a reason. This woman has made a decision to have a child at her age for whatever reason.(s) I’m sure she has weighed out all the pros & cons. I will not judge her but instead, I will pray for her & hope her baby will be healthy.
September 1st, 2011 at 2:28 am
I’ve heard there are studies that say the women who have babies late in life live longer. I can’t imagine having a baby at my age and I’m only 53, it would tear up what’s left of my back. If 60-year old woman has a baby by the time the child graduates high school she will be 78, and if he/she graduates college 82. My parents were older but not that much, I noticed in first grade there were young-looking parents in their early 20′s and mine were in their 40′s and wondered what happened to mine to be so much older. lol Hopefully the woman will have some older children who could step in and help with that child in case something happens to her and the father.
September 1st, 2011 at 3:25 am
i think the situation needs addressing in it,s entirety, why is she doing this? is she trying to replace a child that died under tragic circumstances, to provide herself with an heir? why would someone want to go to the post office and draw family allowance, when they should be drawing their old age pension? a lot of senior citizens have raised their grandchildren, after say the tragic loss of their parents in say an aeroplane or motoring accident.
this task is simplified and achieved due to the fact that genetric traits skip a generation, and manifest themselves in the next generation, hence the uncanny bonding between grandparents and grandchildren, as opposed to tension between children and their parents, but why this woman wishes to produce another sibling, at retirement age defies reality, without full knowledge of the facts.
September 1st, 2011 at 4:03 am
I think she’s nuts. After a week I’m ready to give my grands back to their parents. When God created us he knew that we should end childbearing at a certain age so that we would be able to physically and mentally raise these children that we give birth to. You really shouldn’t mess with natural processes.
September 1st, 2011 at 4:30 am
I think she is supremely selfish. She may be well today but can’t speak for tomorrow. I never had any illness in my life until I was 57, then I had breast cancer, followed by breast cancer in the other breast two years later and now I have a serious lung disease. The same thing could just as easily happen to her.
September 1st, 2011 at 5:04 am
It’s definitely puzzling. I don’t know enough about the woman to pass judgment on her. I hope she can follow through with caring for a child. I know I sure couldn’t do it again at age 55! I wish her the best…but I just don’t get it.
September 1st, 2011 at 5:50 am
I did not have sex with that woman
biologist
September 1st, 2011 at 6:39 am
She is a total disgrace, and a very selfish person.
September 1st, 2011 at 7:18 am
This woman is mind-boggling.
September 1st, 2011 at 7:46 am
I’m not sure what the objection is. Is everyone concerned for her health? Are they embarrassed by the fact that she appears to have had sex? LOL
Like most things in life it all depends on how its handled. I see no difference in her caring for her baby and the woman who is raising new born grandchildren.
Young people die at an early age and leave behind small children.
I had a son who was embarrassed by the fact that I looked so young that his high school friends thought I was his sister and didn’t believe him when he told them I was his mother and still they asked for intros. LOTS of things embarrass kids.
September 1st, 2011 at 7:51 am
Honestly I don’t consider it any of my business. Most of the answers I see here are making generalized guesses. What if Mom lives to 105 and dies by falling from a polo pony. We, thanks to modern medicine, are living longer and fuller lives all the time. On the other side of the coin I know a woman whose mother died during her birth. We just can’t make reliable suppositions on subjects like this…
We can generalize but I could make generalizations about any previous responder that would piss them off thoroughly. Perhaps I could start with small minded and judgmental…
September 1st, 2011 at 8:20 am
I hope she has made arrangements in advance for some nice couple to adopt her/him if she dies before the child is 18. And I hope she is financially secure enough to provide for the child and herself.
September 1st, 2011 at 8:59 am
i think its too bad for the child.
id rather be a grandma .
September 1st, 2011 at 9:41 am
I agree with you. It seems the height of selfishness.
September 1st, 2011 at 10:04 am
I agree with Sugar and if I could of had a mother I really don’t think I would have minded if she was older, if she would have loved me and held me. I have wanted a mother my whole life. There is a loneliness in my life, a hole in my heart, and it will always be there because I never had a mother who loved me. There is just something special about mothers. I remember my elderly grandmother crying on different occasions because she still missed her deceased mother, and she said her mom was the only true friend she had ever had. The 60 year old woman will be able to love and raise her child, so yea why not.
