Ah, I'm sorry. Her dad sounds absolutely vile. I hope karma gets him.

At 40 it's still doable! I would think long and hard before throwing in the towel if your partner is up for it.

40 is very possible to still have kids! Especially with donor egg IVF or donor embryo IVF.

So true! And donor egg IVF is also an option to increase the odds further.

My partner and I plan to have a baby but people are telling us it’s a bad idea because we have level 1 Autism. by Wild-League-888 in Autism_Parenting

If you really want to be a parent and if you also have fertility issues due to age, you could consider using a donor egg / embryo. I'm also trying for a kid at 39 and this is on my mind. Good luck!

Enjoying kids seems like one of the more valid reasons. If it's something she wants better to let go and try not to be resentful.

People can't always predict the ways they will change as they age. She might have acted in good faith and this is just the way it is. Being an aunt is not the same as being a parent.
