I've been a freeper a lot longer than you, smart@$$. I remember back in 2000 when FReepers were knocking Steve Forbes for having an 11 year old daughter, and he was in his late 50s at the time.

Just observing the FACT that people shouldn't be having small "children" when they're in their mid 60s. It's cruel to the children and hurts the adults ablity to raise them as they age. How can we as a soecity hypocritically bash teens for having babies and being unprepared to raise them when we tolerate people of retirement age having children? So we say people are too young to have kids but you're never too old? Bull. Obviously Fred doesn't believe in "traditional" family values.

I really don't think the kids look forward to visiting daddy in the nursing home by the time they're old enough to enter college.

How can we bash teens for having babies???

Unprepared?

Tolerate people of retirement age having children?

Do you have any idea how stupid this agrument sounds.

Comparing inexperiance to experiance is dumb enough...but to say that someone in thier 60's cannot or should not raise a child is beyond the pale..
