[quote=Anonymous]My grandma was in her late 40's when she had my aunt. Her oldest daughter was 24 at the time. I also know a 49 year old I worked with that got pregnant and gave birth at 50 and it was a complete surprise. It's a bit wrong to say that someone giving birth at 50 are doing a disservice to their kids, because even if you give birth at 50 like my coworker - and it was her own egg, too - it means her kid will be 20 when she is 70. She can't help that, no more than my grandma could help being 68 and mother to a 20 year old. She was a hard core Catholic and birth control wasn't a thing. If it happens late in life no one should be shamed for it as you never know if it was an oops baby unless they confirm they used a donor. I know my coworker and grandma would feel terrible if someone told them they shouldn't be moms at that age. It just happens sometimes.[/quote]
