59 years old seems very old to be having a child. the mother will most likely die before the child reaches his or her teens maybe 19? but definatly at a young age which will be very hard for the child.My argument is what is the reason for my friend and her husband as to why they cant, they say its her age...43 is too old to have a IVF and have a baby, baring in mind they have beeen trying desperatly to have a baby!!
but if this age is too old then whay the bloody hell is it okay for the 59 year old to have a baby!!
okay the 59 paid for it but its besides the point.
it seems very unfair to me
agreed it does seem very unfair to me also. what do they say is the maximum age they will accept?
its 30 something.
the thing is they were allowed to have IVF on the NHS when they first started trying for a baby, but they were not to know it would take so long! shame really.
Yes it is a shame when they could of been spending that time using this ivf treatment :/ so now all they can do is wait and hope or pay the money? but how much of a garantee is this treatment to have a child for such a large cost

I am all for advances in science, otherwise where would we be? But then I think there is too much tampering with nature. Then all this happens. a ten year old child deprived of a mother at ten because she is too old to cope and dies. Where are family values. OK. I am old fashioned. Damn it.
No i agree with that point that the child will be motherless so early in its life which is why they probably refuse to do it to anyone over a certain age for free. but the money they probably make from mothers over that age makes them say ok plus its so much that who has the money to do it? or is willing to pay when others a few years younger have it free.
but also what about the woman who has very few years left on earth and has never had a child and desperately wants one?
in the north of cyprus they allow you to chose the sex of the baby which is apparently popular with english people
