@l0us3rr I don't think she mentioned that name once! You're right!! She is so incredibly self-centered it's appalling. I'm glad you guys see her for what she is the rest of this comment section is just "aww how cute good for her!"

This man really thinks it's sweet to use his children for free babysitting? What's wrong with him? If he didn't want to raise children why would he have any???

That's not even the problem it's her body and her choice. The problem is that she's literally going to die before her kid turns 50 and that's selfish as f***.

My mom didn't have her second child until 15 years after I was born. I agree with everything you said 100%. It was completely selfish of her and she is now 51 and doing a terrible job. She did a great job with me when she had me at 23. She did amazing raising me considering her circumstances. Now her circumstances are better, she's financially better off more independent and doing whatever the f*** she wants and spending her money on alcohol and weed and vacations. Whike my 13-year-old brother is overweight, under educated, in need of glasses and not listening or caring about what anyone says because that's what our mom does.

@u.synlig if it acts like a boomer, talks like a boomer, and walks like a boomer then why shouldn't we lump them in with the boomers?

Don't adopt a baby. Don't be selfish and force a child to live many decades of their life without you. Adopt an older child that will not have to live so long on Earth without you there for them. This woman will be incredibly lucky to see her child turn 50 and that's so selfish I can't even imagine it. I'm 27 and freaking out that I'm going to be too old to interact with my grandbabies one day.

@TayrnsTime it may not be suicide and they may be healthy and so are their babies. But it's still not okay. They're being completely and utterly selfish they don't care at all that their children are going to have to go through decades more of their life without their parents. She would be incredibly lucky to live to see her child turn 50. That's horribly selfish and cruel to wait so long to have a kid that you're essentially going to peace out of their life before theirs is over halfway.

@TayrnsTime okay I don't know how you wrote that whole paragraph and didn't understand that it is selfish to have a child at an old age knowing that you are going to die when they are young. How do you not understand that?

And the most sad part is it's completely selfish. The kid is going to have to live several decades longer than most others without their parents. Because their parents wanted to wait until they were 50 to have them. It's so mean and cruel. I told my mom she has to live to be old as f*** and she had me at 23 lol.

@u.synlig 12th year of what now? Not a single country as effective or clear-sighted politicians running it. Every country is run by greedy individuals who have been taking for themselves. What delusional la la Land do you live in?

No one is saying that they have to have kids before they have their life together. Everyone should plan their kids. Everyone is saying that it's selfish to wait until 50 to have a child because you will literally be dead before your child is even 50. Unless you get to be incredibly lucky and live to be a hundred but it's not like you're ever going to be able to be a parent like any normal parent would be. You just can't be when you're that old. They don't get to do physical things with their grandchildren when they're that old. And as many commenters have pointed out, they had older parents that passed away before they made it to the later stages of life and they resent them for it. Because it was the worst thing that ever happened to them. The longer you wait to have a kid the longer you are forcing that could live on this Earth without you. And that might be dandy for you as the person dying first. But it's incredibly selfish to the person who's left to live without their parents. If you don't have your s*** together by the time you're 30 something you probably don't need to be having kids. Having kids isn't a human rights that everyone needs to participate in. It is a privilege that should be honored as such.

And by the way your entire opinion about all the parents being better because they're older is so ignorant it's laughable. My mom had me at 23 and then didn't have another kid again until 15 years later. The way she raised me I consider to be far superior to how most people raised their kids. The way she is raising my brother is downright pathetic. She's Now 51 and he's 13, and he is overweight, doing poorly in school for the last 2 years, not listening, and not learning how to be a responsible person. She is becoming like her mother was, a drunk who does what she wants and spends her money on what she wants. She was a far better parent in her twenties than she is being in her 50s. I'm literally about to go tell her today that if she doesn't get her s*** together by the time our lease is up my little brother is moving in with us because I don't want him to be ruined by her. Whatever anecdotal evidence you're using for your opinion, is just that, one example out of the hundreds and hundreds of elder parents.

No, it's an incredibly selfish thing to do. You should not bring a child into the world at age 50 so you'll be dead by the time they are 50. Probably dead by time they hit their late 30s or 40s. Yes people more often are living to and past 100 years of age but that's still the minority.

Personally it's not okay to have a kid at 50 whether or not you had them by IVF surrogacy or whatever. She is absolutely going to die before that person sees their 70s. She is most likely going to die before they even see their fifties. What kind of mother is so selfish she would do that to a child????

Her child and grandchildren aren't going to be happy when she dies super early in their lives because she was selfish and waited to have a kid at 50. Think about how incredibly lucky she would have to be to live to be a 101 and see her own child turn 50?
