Discusting! What about the poor kid who has their mother die before they graduate because they are so old! Not to mention having to chase after the kid, that tires out a young person (I know I have 4 kids and am 30 years old). I don't know on her side you can say its empowering, on the kids side you can say thats unfair! Average lifespan for a woman is around 83, she probably will not be around for the kid to even make highschool!
