For any woman concerned with their biological clock expiring, meet Elizabeth Adeney, age 66. This sexagenarian nutter is convinced that the world cannot function without a little bundle of her optimism. Adeney will be England’s oldest child bearer.
Let us weigh the PROs and CONs of Adeney’s decision:
PROs
- The child will instantly win media sympathy for being born to that “selfish senile senior citizen”.
- I don’t believe In Vitro Fertilization was created to set Guinness records, nevertheless, she would still not be the oldest woman to ever give birth, so her intentions may actually be sincere.
- Strong arm muscles: Adeney will only need to use a baby stroller for a few years until her child is forced to push her around in a wheelchair.
- Child gets handicap parking for life.
- Hand sewn sweaters made ‘with love’.
- More tax breaks for Adeney than Gordon Brown can afford to give out.
CONs
- Schoolmates will tease child for having GILF as a mother.
- Adeney will be 84 years old when her child graduates from high school – I needed a calculator for that one. The CON: It is hard to get good sleep at commencement ceremonies.
- Child must endure grandma-esque sloppy kisses everyday.
- The media has spun the story enough that Adeney is somehow seen as a more suitable parent than a celebrity or gay couples.
- Slim chance child will have grandparents.
Her Right
We may not understand it, but it is her right to have a baby. If she wants to deal with being woken up in the middle of the night by a crying child for feedings at age 66 – ew mental picture – then kudos to her.
