Men and women in their seventies should never have children. It is worldwide believed that giving a birth at 70 years old might cause different problems. Nevertheless, some people claim that having children at this age is not dangerous and has benefits. Let us discuss the pros and cons of this issue. From my point of view, having children at the old age is normal. Old people are able to grow the happiest children as they have much free time and can dedicate it to child’s upbringing. What is more, these people have a rich life experience and are wise to bring a child up giving him or she everything that is necessary for being a successful person in the future. Nevertheless, the possibility of near death is very high and children are likely to lose their parents not even reaching 5 years old. Growing up without close relatives might be tough for a little child and he or she may not get fundamental upbringing with such things as love, care and trust. Secondly, giving a birth at this age is very dangerous for women’s health and it might cause not only mother’s death, but also a child’s one. Taking the pros and cons into consideration, I can make a conclusion that having a child in seventies does not always lead to bad consequences. Most of the time, it depends on the person who gives a birth and her ability to grow and bring her child up.
