Delaying having a child, Having a child in your 40's
Forbes magazine published this piece When have you waited too late to become a Mom? The author raises some valid points around the difficulties of having children past your 40's. What I believe that if you do want children, and even if you have waited till your 40's or even 50's you do have options. One option I always encourage clients to explore is adoption - although adoption is a difficult process, older prospective parents are welcome by most agencies. And if you adopt an older child, some of the difficulties that are raised in this article can be negated.
