[quote=Anonymous]My cousin was born to a 42-year old psychiatrist mother, which at the time was much rarer than today, since there were hardly any IVF procedures. My cousin is now 40 and her father and mother still have all their marbles, but her father has recently had a stroke and he had a quadruple bypass 5 years ago. I think when you reach your 40s, it's psychologically acceptable to have parents in poor health. I'm in my 40s too, 30 years younger than my parents, and my father is in the hospital and doing poorly, so it's not like a shorter age gap between parent and child is necessarily helpful in that quarter. My husband had his first child at 43 and second at 48. He's in great shape, mentally and physically. No one knows what the future will bring. [/quote]
