[QUOTE="Estherfromjerusalem, post: 47501, member: 77"] I just have to jump in here. Yes, I agree with everything you have all said. And nevertheless . . . somehow, I understand what this woman has done. There are some people who have boundless energy well into old age, and there are others who are like old people when they are still really young. No one knows what is in store. And if one has faith . . . I wish her good health, and a lot of joy. And nothing worse should happen than that people think the parents are grandparents. I had my youngest son (my difficult child) at age 41, and my hair was already white, and other children in the kindergarten would say to him "here's your granny come to get you!" So what! I'm sure she will have a lot of help with all the practical things if they are comfortably off. I certainly wouldn't want to have any more children now (I am 62). Having raised eight children, I don't even have much strength to be nice to my grandchildren (although I AM nice to them, don't get me wrong, I love them and they love me). And still, once in a while, I get a little twinge, remembering how wonderful I felt all through pregnancy, what an amazing thing it was to give birth, and how I just adored those first baby years. No, I don't want any more, certainly not once they get older, but nevertheless . . . Just my two cents' worth . . . Love, Esther [/QUOTE]
