wow. that's so irresponsible. IF she gets pregnant, she'll probably be dead before the child is able to care for themselves. She should have just adopted when she first decided she was "ready" to have kids. Some people are so dumb!
ReplyDeleteI guess I don't understand how having a kid through IVF and being too old to raise it is different from being too old to raise a child she's adopted. How she chose to have the child isn't the issue, it's that she's too old to raise a child.
ReplyDeleteSo many warning bells in one little article... I don't even want to think about the risk she's taking with her own health, much less the incredible risks to the children she's attempting to create. The fact that she's 72 and never been in a committed relationship worries me as well. Please tell me she's had pets because your 70's is not the time to change from a self-oriented life. Does she have people in her life who would take over the child if she dies earlier than planned? (and who can help through her sure-to-increase infirmities) And what permanent genetic material is she going to pass on during pregnancy? That kid's DNA is coming from egg donor and sperm donor -- period.
