I do agree with her body her choice. The thing is, eventually this becomes societies problem. The risk is high that these kids will not have their parents around for a long time, time is against them. My issue is people are having kids just because they can it seems and not fully thinking through the outcome. The oops babies, the we can't afford it babies, the let's make it work babies, the mid-life/three-quarter life crisis babies, etc etc. It bothers me because in different ways it is putting many strains on society. I can't really go into it all here, I don't think it's the most appropriate thread, but this has been a big peeve of mine for a long time. I am all for choice, but I think it's just irresponsible at that age to be bringing children into the world. I think it is just as bad when old men have a ton of babies with young women, but for some reason this seems to go unnoticed and isn't discussed to the extent that a woman at this age to do the same. Believe me, in my books, it's the exact same thing, no double standard with me. As for a parent with a heart murmur, I have no problem with that. If there are two parents who feel the risk is worth it, can afford to have kids, are of the appropriate age, and are doing it for the right reason (as your mum did the_jazz) then I think that is perfectly fine! My main issues that surpasses this one issue is that having kids is not taken as seriously as it should be and people seem to have kids just because they feel it's their given right. Psh.
