I agree with you. Most single women getting pregnant for the first time at 43 are doing it deliberately, or as you said, realize that the window is closing and so they go with it. At 43, they are hopefully financially able to handle single motherhood.

I am just about to that age myself and don’t have the husband or kids...sometimes life just doesn’t work out the way you hoped and prayed it would. But plenty of women in my same circumstances feel crappy enough missing out on the husband that there is no way in heck are they going to miss out on the child, too. No way would they abort. This author is living in fembot la-la land.

I wonder if the author of this article also gets annoyed that the death penalty isn’t discussed as a viable option in more crime movies.

That is something a lot of young women don’t understand. They see celebrities having babies at 44 or 45, but what they aren’t told is that those celebrities adopted or used somebody else’s eggs. I read recently that Janet Jackson is pregnant for the first time. The article made it sound like she just happened to get pregnant, but she must have used expensive medical treatments and somebody else’s eggs. Cases like that make young girls feel they have all the time in the world to have a baby, when actually fertility begins to decline at age 28. It’s not politically correct, but it’s best if women have their babies when they’re young.

Damn straight Jackson used donated eggs. You are right that young women don’t appreciate how short their fertility is, and they don’t know about the crisis of infertility.

dp0622, don’t bother with this one. She and I had a few go-arounds a few years back when she could find nothing wrong with even obviously corrupt or careless cops. They were always blameless. Not surprised she’s a FR Church Lady, too.

I will say that she does have a redeeming feature: She’s pro-Trump.

They aren’t pompous; you are. Every culture must have standards. Yours just happen to be low and ultimately not up to the task of sustaining an advanced, healthy civilization.

Hey! How come that wasn't directed at me!

I'm the worst influence on FR and America, dammit!

When did you become the FR anti-Christian enforcer?

You can just back off that anti-Christian stuff here, bub.

Show a little respect for the beliefs of other Freepers.

By the way, if you want to attack me at least leave out the innocent bystanders.

I'm as Christian as they come.

But there is a difference between a lady who goes to church, and a Church Lady.

The film tanked at the box office...

It was a hit overseas. I don't think it had huge expectations over here; a rom-com sequel 15 years after the original featuring an 40-something actress most people had all but forgotten about.

That it made $8 million is surprising.

LOL, thanks for posting this. And it does prove that we’ve move beyond satire because I was just wondering if any lefty idiots would complain that it should be Bridget Jones’s Abortion. Like that would be a funny movie.

Forsooth, I hope they all burn in hell.

“I haven’t seen any of the Bridget Jones movies”

Only saw the first one, it was pretty good.

Why would you be surprised that liberal would be mad about a lack of abortion, they LIVE for abortion.

It’s sad, but they do.

It is sad.

Abortion is ugly, depressing, brutal murder. Any light hearted, happy movie certainly doesn’t want any mention of it.
