[quote=Anonymous]The news broke today that Hoda Kotb from The Today Show has adopted an 8 day old baby. I'm happy for her, but 52 and a single parent seems extremely old and frankly, unfair to the child. No doubt, her daughter will have a great life with nannies, a nice lifestyle, hopefully a good inheritance. But it does seem awfully old to be starting your family, especially as a single parent where your chlid is left with a guardian if you die. She'll be 70 when her daughter graduates high school. It's not easy to adopt a healthy infant, so it also feels like her money/fame is making it possible for her to get a child others wouldn't have the same chance at. Thoughts? Should there be an upper age limit on adopting infants? (There already is with many international adoptions, not sure about domestic/foster care.)[/quote]
