Can she even push the pram?

OK - this is taking it just too far. And you know what's crazy? She's not the oldest ever. The oldest is 66.

This woman is going to be 81 years old when her child finishes high school. She'll be shuttling him/her around to extracurricular activities when she should be interviewing retirement communities. As a woman having some trouble conceiving, I'm certainly all for fertility treatments. But within reason. I wouldn't be doing it 30 years from now. This sort of thing is selfish and short-sighted.

I loved this part: "Antinori said he had carried out the procedure on Rashbrook in an unnamed former Soviet republic."

Sweet globalization.
