Medicine is getting better and better. Most problems with genetics and health can be controlled very good nowadays. So I don't think this is a very strong argument against pregnancy above 50. The social aspects have to be considered by the parents, but I am sure that most people who decide for a child at this age do this.
If we begin to define which woman should have a baby and who not, we will end with less than 5 percent of women being 'allowed' to have one. Sorry, that does not appeal to me.
