Cast your vote and explain why you voted that way! UK woman, 66, defends right to have kids May 18, 2009, 11:41 am
A 66-year-old pregnant British woman has defended her right to have a baby at her age.
Elizabeth Adeney, who is believed to be around eight months pregnant after undergoing fertility treatment, is expected to become Britain's oldest mother when she gives birth.
The divorcee has told reporters that her pregnancy is her own business.
"I don't have to defend what I have done. It's between me and my baby and no one else," she told the Sunday Mirror newspaper.
"It's a very private thing and I don't expect anyone else to understand it.
"It doesn't interest me that I'm going to be the oldest mum in the country.
"It's not my physical age that is important; it's how I feel inside. Some days, I feel 39. Others, I feel 56.'
Ms Adeney, of Lidgate, Suffolk, runs a plastic fastenings factory.
A friend told the Daily Mirror that she unsuccessfully tried to have a baby five years ago.
The UK's oldest known mother was 62 when she gave birth in 2006.
The oldest mother in the world is believed to be an Indian woman who gave birth at the age of 70 in 2008. |

I vote for choice 1. I heard about this at school, (people talking in the next-door) and I believe that people should be left to conduct their own affairs in peace. She isn't hurting anyone, so why should any outsider care what she does?
