Children may be orphaned when their parents are young also, and many of these children end up being raised by their grandparents -- quite well, I might add. My great-great-aunt lived to 108, surviving several octogenarian toyboys... I'm sure she only died because she'd finally managed to do it all.
If it happens naturally, who is to say it can't be done? Eleanor of Aquitaine was still bearing children well into her late forties/ early fifties, in a time when medical science was somewhat less advanced than it is today
Sex? SEX! You rude woman! 'Hanky panky', or 'High Jinx' as it is sometimes known, is a version of crib ---- and oh, how we went at it, a real all-nighter! Yes, we did not go to our respective beds, me in extra tough pyjams, she in her hessian night-gown, sensibly stapled at the hem, until past 10-30 --- pm! What about that! You would have to jog my memory about that other business, I don't quite recall how it all went....Nothing to compare with a GOOD GAME OF CRIB, THOUGH.
What topic? Ah, old folk! Well, what a how d'ye do, eh!
Georges Sands was a gay old thing, very disreputable, and then over-night became a gracious grandma-- or more discreet.....I think I have not spelt the name correctly... yes, as I was saying-- what was I saying? Hmm.. that young scallywag...dotage indeed! Pah!
It is a very valid (?-can something be?) point that grand-parents frequently raise children in any event --- but the thought---crikey, no, Madameee!
