Probably not. Children are a lot of work and take a lot of energy. Later in life I believe you should make time for yourself and look forward to spending your spare time and money on yourself. But if children are something you have always wanted then age should not be a factor. Age is not a determining factor on your ability to raise a child or how much you care for the child.

No, to both questions. If I were 50 and single I would travel
and enjoy things that marriage and children would prevent.

I would always consider marriage at any age, but children are another story. For me, it would just be too much work. I would like to stop having children at 30. Mostly because I want to be young enough to enjoy my grandkids. That's supposed to be the whole point of having kids:) But, despite all of my reasons, people are waiting later and later to have kids. So, to each is his own, I guess. Good luck w/ your decision.

Depends on:
1.) How financially stable you are to afford the complications of pregnancy and related age problematics.
2.)How emotionally stable you are to handle the possibility of a Downs Syndrome or worse still born child.
3.) What your motivations are and if they are right for the new babe.
4.) If you are prepared to spend your twilight years being a parent and foregoing the right to retire. I know of no parents that get to relax.
Marriage:
I would never reccomend that to anyone.

Honey any woman over 50 who even tries to get pregnant is in need of therapy.

I am, and NO! I would not. But, it is up to the individual to decide for themselves. A child at 50? good luck, hope the person is around to see it reach adulthood.

Do you mean give birth to more children?
Besides the fact that the factory is now closed I would not consider diapers again.
