It sounds like she is being inreasonable with her desire to have another kid in her mid 50s. Most of the energy you think you have, is drawn out of you with a newborn/toddler even when you are in your 20s/30s, I can't imagine the exhaustion of being near 60 with a 5 year old full time.
My good neighbors are 80/83, and having to raise thier great grand daughter who is now 10, they are at wits end, and constantly in the car going to events/practices, and can NEVER relax.
I am currently 55, and if my wife of 31 years told me the same thing, I would also have to refuse, because retirement was going to be OUR time. I still have a 20 year old son at home, and looking forward to an empty nest.
