Overage parents, especially fathers, pamper their kids as a living testimony of their virility, especially if born after he hit 50. These overage fathers pamper their trophy kids so much they fail to differentiate between public place and private space, and are a social nuisance in flights or train journeys. They also lack social, communicative and behavioural skills and are mostly bullys.
Should we bring a legislation stopping males to turn fathers after they hit 50??

age has nothing to do with it. it's all about parenting skills.
i've seen fathers who are in their late 20's pamper their kids.
i think children learn how to act through modeling-if the parent is rude, mean, or inappropriate in public while their child is growing up-the child is going to learn to do the same thing.
people who have lots of money will sometimes raise their children to think they are better than everyone else just b/c of a dollar sign-do you think we should pass a law stating rich people can't have kids?!!
it's all in how we raise our kids. but then again-you can spend your entire life raising your kids with strict rules,good manners,and proper ettiquite and this child can be the rudest, meanest, and most obnoxious person out there b/c of their personality. it all depends.
this would be discrimination and something legislation will never allow.

I would ask that you provides sources to back up your claims...
As for legislation - No. We cannot become monsters, making laws on whether people can procreate or not. Any kind of blanket statement like this one is bound to have exceptions. You may as well make a law that says all single mothers generate feral children, and their children should be relocated.
Any kind of lawmaking like this is utterly absurd.

You are special aren't you? You should get off your soap box before you fall off. I've known several "over age" fathers who've managed to raise very smart, very obedient children. Can't say the same for their children who were born when the parents were younger. So your perception, certainly can not be generalized.

I have seen the opposite in many cases of children with older parents.
Studies have shown that these kids have a better life overall and that they turn out more well adjusted than their peers with younger parents often times.
