Have these guys ever heard of Grandchildren? The "We" in any discussion and decision involving an older man (past 60 yrs old) having children is typically NOT a "We" decision, but more of a "Her" want and influence. I agree, as we get older as men, we become maybe a little more patient, but that is why we hope to become Grandfathers.

As long as a couple are happy together nothing else matters. Helping another human having a better and more comfortable life is a very good thing. ❤️❤️❤️

My wife and I had a child together when she was 37 and I was 49 when we lived in HK. We now live in the Philippines. The family is happy and financially secure. Our son is now 7 years old. We both have children from previous relationships.There was no 'plan' on my part, although I suspect she was planning!. Her daughter from a previous relationship lives with us and I support her at university. Their future is secure. We have property and a business and a decent income.

I'm 67, planning to move to SE Asia next year. I will be looking for a wife who wants to have kids. I never had kids in the US after watching "Divorce American Style" when I was 11 or 12 years-old. Seems I prefect time and place to have kids. My wife will be set financially for her life and our kids thru college. There's no way I could have provided that level of security when I was in my 20's and 30's. I retired 22 years ago and have enjoyed retirement. I'm ready for my next adventure. I hear a lot of retired people say they like spending time with grandkids and expats with single mom say they enjoy having kids around. I have the budget to hire housekeepers and nannies if my wife wants. I don't plan to change diapers. I hear men say then don't want to go thru the work of having kids again. Well yeah, I wouldn't want to either as a 20 year-old guy. I plan to travel and have fun too with my wife and kids or solo. I now have a lot more to teach kids and time to do it. Them having dual citizenship and language is a great plus. What others think is no concern of mine.

There's only one pro that I can think of for this geriatric guy Thornton to have a child at his age. He and his child will be able to have their diapers changed at the same time. It is the ultimate act of selfishness.

I can only speak for myself, at 66 yrs old I am way too old to father a child. If I can't be reasonably certain that I will be there for their development then there is no way that I could justify bringing another life into the world.

Mark is a drama king. Punched a guy and many disagreements with many expats. Not a popular guy. People stay away from this creep.

Good for Mark and his wife, it is their decision nobody else's, trolls should try minding their own business for a change.

Mark doesn't seem to happy with the interview. He wont even look into the camera. He's way too old to father a child. Plus he's had heart bypass surgery. How much longer does he really have?

Hey it beats being a 'pay piggy' for a ready made family whose dad deserted their children and left a foreigner provider to pick up the pieces. Makes for a stronger family connection to have your own child together. If it gives an older man a purpose for living and taking better care of himself, it is a positive thing. Why is it a great thing to adopt children who aren't your own and a bad thing to have your own? Also, I believe there is an extra benefit for those living on social security. I don't really see a downside IF you really WANT more kids.

Always enjoy your channel Gary. You seemed a little nervous though (not sure why) God bless your family!

I already fathered 3 wonderful kids now their grown.. Working and Grinding on that American Hamster wheel for 30years I just can't see myself at 62yo retired with a baby.. Retirement/not changing diapers.

Hello Mark, I'm happy for you. As long as your happy everybody is happy. Age doesn't matter that's your choice. take care that bundle of joy. They grow so fast. Thanks for sharing. God Bless.

My late deceased husband and I had no children of our own together for myself when he was alive before he passed away, because he was already a basictomy when i meet him years back, so before we got married we both agreed that no child anymore. Since he already have 2 sons on his previous married. But unfortunately my younger sister siblings next to me is very poor and have 6 children with her husband. So I helped them out of raising their children's and also providing educational financial. Because they really wants to get a higher education for a better life that has a better offers of paying jobs! And finally they are experiencing of working now! I believes that God's has a purpose for me in other way, as a Filipinos being a family oriented it is part of our culture to help with each other! Lol 😂 but i regret it no matter what...👏🙌

Under 'dullard' in the dictionary, you'll see a photo of Mark Thornton.

Super bad idea ... But that's his nightmare now.

Does Mark have grandkids in the US? Grandkids are a blessing and they need their grandparents around.

I love you guys. 👍👍

Mark is so miserable. You had to drag him through that interview so kudos to you, Gary, for making it work.

Teach him Spanish and Chinese....with the English those 3 and you can speak with 90 percent of the world

I would not mind more kids. I have means and probably about 25-30 more years of decent mobility/life. She wants them, but has issues, so it may not happen. Not opposed, not worried.

IF YOU DIDNT PLAN ON STARTING A FAMILY IN YOUR COUNTRY OF ORIGIN, NOT SURE WHY YOU WOULD ABROAD.

I want to hear from adults who had an elderly parent.

Hi Gary, great interview. God bless. From Chris in Australia

to Mark... whatever you do don't let your wife read a book on body language. :)

It is up to the individual. Im 64 wifes 30 , We have a 5 yr old ,love him like crazy ,always wanted a son and finally have one, I think having a child really strengthened our relationship. The negative ,im getting old fast now after 60 And slowing down.

Oops, I meant 20:09

enjoy new family

How's your angry problem I hope you got some help

Mark seems pensive and reluctant to do this interview, body language is different from when he does his own video. Just an observation, may be misreading it.

Mark was all for having a child when he realized his social security was going to increase by 50%

I really think the decision to have a child at that age is totally up to the individual who cares what other people think but one thing that does bother me very much especially with what he was saying that people like Brad Pitt aren't with their children that is true but they do support their children Mark cannot afford this child this child will be supported by the United States taxpayers through Social Security Maybe there is a law being proposed that anybody who's never been in the United States will not be able to be a beneficiary to Social Security some more or less children born overseas will no longer get Social Security and I think that's how it should be why should the taxpayers bear the burden of a child who has never even been to the country. I definitely support that in the new Social Security bill that will be coming up this year

A baby is a gift from God!

There is to much divorce and remarriage. God said he hates divorce. Do a video on this and i commend you. As long as your former spouse is alive, and your remarried, your living in an adulterous relationship. Of course God can forgive this sin, but Christians should take a stand for Gods word.

I’m 58 and no way will have a child. Mark’s wife, though very pretty, is extremely demanding. From babies, to the car to building a house for her. Mark is broke and lives check to check. KZfaq helped him but that’s drying up with his fight

How do the PH view race mixing? While many people consider Asians white with Asian ethnicity, others say it’s a totally different race. Many countries don’t want foreigners having biracial marriages and biracial kids because they know it could ultimately dilute their race, culture and gene pool. I notice biracial people all over never really have a solid racial identity. I also have seen mixed race couples don’t understand the identity issues mixed kids could endure. Does the PH look at biracial Filipinos as Asian, the other race they’re mixed with or other? Just curious about it.

As usual the child's the one who suffers the most!!! Irresponsible!!

Can we say fools..you awto be old enough to know better...sleep in! He bed ya made...lol
