A story from msnbc.com today:
"LONDON - A 62-year-old child psychologist has given birth to a boy, becoming the oldest British woman to have a baby.
Patti Farrant — known professionally as Patricia Rashbrook — delivered her son, J.J., by Caesarean section on Wednesday, according to The Daily Mail newspaper. The baby was conceived after fertility treatments.
Farrant has three grown children from a previous marriage. It is the first child for her husband, John, 60, an education management consultant."
Question:
If you knew that you and your spouse would not likely live long enough to raise a child, would you proceed with reproduction efforts? Would you be giving a child the gift of life? Or is it a greater burden to the child?
