....... That would be my worst nightmare~~ amp;

You were wise to not express your feelings on this subject. He may be trying to make the best of a situation he wasn't expecting.

Now a days many people are making the conscious decision to either limit the number of kids they have or not have any at all...

What surprises me is that he already raised five grown children. Now those kids have their own families. I don't think I could handle changing diapers and raising a new baby at my age.

IT IS JUST AS WELL YOU ABSTAINED FROM EXPRESSION YOUR OPINION BUT YOU ARE RIGHT IN NOT WANTING A BABY WHEN YOU ARE ALREADY 67 OR 69 LIKE YOUR FRIEND. THE MOTHER WILL MOST LIKELY BE A WIDOW RAISING A CHILD AND UNLESS YOUR FRIEND CAN PROVIDE MEGA FOR THEM, THE YOUNG WOMAN'S LIFE WILL BE DIFFICULT. WHAT IS THE KID GOING TO SAY TO SCHOOLFRIENDS WHEN HE IS IN MIDDLE SCHOOL AND DAD, AGE 80 COMES TO PICK HIM UP??? YIKES!

I personally think it was huge mistake to have another child at his age. But it was his choice, now he has to bear responsibility.

All I am seeing is $$$$ signs with this. Not saying all young women r like that, but she could have done it differently. I heard of this before. And who is to say the kid is really his ? He better get a paternity test done ! Just my opinion !

Everything is possible, but my friend is not a wealthy man.

Way too old in my opinion.. My eldest son became a dad at 39 for the first time and he thought he was rather old starting a family. Anyway to each their own as the saying goes.

Providing the baby is even his - and he could just be her pension plan, many have a younger 'man friend' that's unbeknown to the husband.

Judgment Day will be interesting - and all paths lead there.

It is possible, I can't tell one way or the other because I never met her. Your scenario does happen a lot.
