TOPIC: now fertilisation techniques make it possible for women to have babies in their fifties, ore even sixties. Should they be allowed to have children at this age?
It is certainly true that nowadays life in general, and women´s life in particular, is getting larger and healthier. You can be good looking and full of energy in your fifties or sixties
There are two main reasons why I think that the topic could be suitable:
- - Firstly, what children need is:
Love, which everybody can provide
Security, middle age people should have a wealthy and stable family dynamic.
Rules, it doesn´t depend on the age to be able to set up good rules
- - Secondly, If the ethic committee doesn´t see any problem in that, they are the experts, so we must trust them
On the other hand, one argument against is the point that to bring up children you need a lot of energy, even if they don´t have any extra problem. Maybe it´s not fair for them to be ten years old and have parents in their seventies.
In my opinion, if there are middle age people willing to be parents, they should be foster parents of older children. It´s very difficult for those children to be adopted because they are not babies.
However, I wouldn´t dare say that they shouldn´t be allowed to do it. To raise children is, in my opinion, one of the most difficult issues you can cope with.
In conclusion, I can only wish any parents of any age good luck with their children.
