[Reflections of a pediatric psychiatrist on pregnancy in aged couples].
Pregnancies in later life and their effects on children must be assessed from several points of view, those of the child and its parents and also from the medical and social viewpoints. They do not bring into play the real needs of the child so much as the cultural images. The confrontation of parents with the end of their lives and creativity and, above all, the options of society regarding the protection of human potential are brought into question.
