I side with the 'selfish' feeling. I don't think there are many situations in which a single woman should attempt... or even want... to have a kid on her own.

If she wants the 'fun of raising a child'... she probably doesn't realize how much WORK it is raising one. I don't have any, but I do have a 1 year old niece and a 5 year old nephew. I am SO glad that I can give them back when I watch them. I couldn't handle it on my own.

I also think this is a characteristic of the 'ME' generation. She's going to intentionally put a child into a less than optimal situation for her own gratification.

Honestly, I hope she pulls it off, and raises a good kid... but the cards are already stacked against her.
