I guess it's none of our business what DeNiro decides to do. Unless he uses a microwave oven, or eats bread, peanuts, or chicken strips, or drinks juices that aren't from freshly-squeezed fruits, or needs to drop 30 pounds of weight, or has too big of a "waste" of land property, or has obese children, or collects paper that may be a "fire hazard"...

I don't always agree with Yong Fang but he has every right to reply on this thread, without being dismissed because someone disagrees.

I was going to mention Tony Randall, but someone beat me to it.

There is also Celine Dion's late husband, and Mick Jagger who also had kids very late in their life.

Odd coming from someone that spends most of their time here telling others how to live.

I do think as one poster said, it is tough on the child to have a very older dad. But in this day and age, although I don't know his relation with the childs mother, the mother in time will remarry and the little tot will have a stepfather. It is interesting to point out as in Tony Randall's children they will see their dad in reruns of the ODD Couple. The mother wants the child more than the father. also to have mother age 42 and dad age 79 one could say GOOD LORD!

What are you talking about? I don't tell anyone how to live. I talk about how I live, what I eliminate and yes I agree it's none of anyone's business how many kids DeNiro has and how late in life.

I suggest stuff for health improvment, and never have said Babalu you should do This and That.....never.

You of all people here, have a pretty strong willed mind. You do stand out and take that as you wish.

Past posts seem to call that claim into question, bold emphasis added to "lead them":

Get Smart...

Perhaps Carole's most revealing contradiction to her "who cares" response to De Niro's life choices is the following post she has made:

"What really irritates me is when people say I can't live without this or that....you need to mention air as the main Need"

Air, and grape seed extract.

Irritated by people's choices, but now claiming not to care about what De Niro does. Apparently only irritated if she disagrees with the choice.

The mystery is why Dude666 brought a health-fixated person to an entertainment site. The upheaval continues to this day. Bottom line: one can't come in and turn a forum upside down, and expect never to come into conflict. Many of us drink cow's milk, have some land to tend to, use a microwave oven, drink an occasional soda, etc. -- these things are anathema to Carole. But most of us are of an age where we're not truly in need of detailed leadership.

I've always found it creepy when people date people who are roughly the same age as their children, and even creepier when children are OLDER than their significant other. For example, in George Lopez Show, Vic, Angie's Dad has a much younger girlfriend named Lindsay. Lindsay is like 27 and Angie is like 40. So creepy and weird. Your child shouldn't be OLDER than your Significant Other.

I do not know why anyone (in their right mind) would want to become a father again at 79? But, hey, if he wanted this baby, good for him.

IMO I would never bring a child into this world since the future does not look too promising (sorry for being overly pessimistic).

I agree

I once dated an older man whose children were around my age, and it was a weird feeling. His son looked older than I did.

Biff, since my opinions irritate you so, why not simply NOT read my info or do an ignore button on me. You sure do spend time and energy TRYING to make me wrong.... I suppose what you do makes you feel good.

Oh and the board is upside down???????

You are not being overly pessimistic, interesting that you are making a comment on this issue, I've prided myself in being the half glass full gal and in recent yrs it's troubling to get there. The last couple days I've had an interesting exchange with a CA born friend, she is in her later 70's, and she
moved to TX to be close to sons and grandkids, and she is not hearing all the pessimistic stuff in TX that I am hearing in CA.....she knows the inflation issues and others but her now state of TX is governed by the other side.

How much bumpier will the ride get????

Well how about this novel thought, DeNiro and the child's mother loved each other, how about that Loved??? and this is his love gift to her, a love child.

Nothing creepy about this..

Dick Van Dyke is 97 I believe, and his wife is in her 50s.... I say let people LIVE THEIR LIVES as long as they aren't harming anyone and both partners are consenting adults. It may look odd to some people, but hey, if they are happy, WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?

Totally agree!
