When it comes to later-in-life pregnancies, I admit I’m biased.

So am I. I was 45 when Kathleen was born (by the boring old natural process, nothing "miraculous," like a celebrity's children).

Is someone going to declare a duty to prevent natural conception because of age? If so, what age is it, and who decides, and how is it enforced?

Not quite sure where you infer that I want to enforce a rule against late pregnancies.

I was voicing a personal opinion, not intending to insult personally.

I DO wish I’d had more time with my parents. To say otherwise would be a lie. Things may turn out quite differently for you and your family.

I have a sister who is my daughter’s age. She was a true blessing for my mother especially when my father died in his 50s. My sister has enriched our whole family and now her daughter is effectively my only grandchild.

Also, my sister is extremely smart so being born to a somewhat older mother didn’t hamper her one iota.
