SORRY

but i think this is very wrong
she is far to old to care for a child
who will chase it round the house and care for it
when the child is 10 she will be 82

The birth of Middlesbrough

And who will look after the child if she dies.
And does she have a husband

BUT a baby NO way

At 63, I can barely look after myself let alone look after someone that would be so dependant on me for their every need. This should not be allowed, full stop
Just my opinion, of course

The fertility doctors should not encourage them

Yes it is wrong and very selfish.
She had her career(didnt catch what she did) but she felt the time is right now.Dont know how long she has been trying though.

She should look after one of these 'dummie'ones that teanagers get to take home or an active two year old to look after for a day or two then see if she still want one lol.
I'm sure she would make a lovely adoptive Granny :))

I doubt if she doesnt realise it's not like shelling peas either to give birth let alone carry one of 9mth.

I believe it is a very selfish thing for a woman over 70 to want to have a baby; it does make me wonder if she is thinking of the child at all.
