If you can keep going, working and well LIVING, why shouldn't you?? What do you want her to do sit on her couch watch soap operad and eat bon-bons till she stops breathing??!! I commend her for being able to go so long!! Let's see if you feel the same way about yourself if you live to be that age!!

What an asinine comment! It's accepted now that continued work/ activity helps with mobility/ mental ability etc.
There is a man in the uk who retired at 99, found himself deteriorating so went back to work a year later and is still going strong at 101! My mum is 93 in a couple of weeks and still comes to help me clear up after the horses, feed the sheep etc and helps me with my website. I'm sure she sees plenty of her family and sometimes work gives a reason for living and fills a void. -

what an asinine comment! working until you're dead is not right morally. she should be living at home and seeing her family in her last years. I want you to see how it's wrong to say that my comment was asinine. it's wrong because just like I have an opinion on this you do too. but it's wrong to call mine asinine just because you disagree with it. no one is right about this, we just have a different take on it.

Whose morals? You say it is not right morally? Whose morals do you refer? It may be the one thing that keeps her alive and driven, I wouldn't dream of telling someone how they should lead their life. If she is not risking people's lives in her chosen profession, then what harm does it do for her to keep going?
You seem to have made a few similar comments elsewhere, I understand that it is your opinion but certainly don't bring morals in to it. -

It's up to her when she retires, if she wants to keep working, that's her choice.
I'm sure she spends time with her loved ones in between acting projects. Everyone should keep active to stay mentally and physically fit/alert.
You're a long time dead!! -

I'm not a careerist and preferred being a full-time mother when my kids were small, but it's Betty's right to work as long as she is able to and wants to. You've got to remember she does have an exciting acting career that pays well and is not just a minimum wage office or retail worker. Her husband is dead, she 1c84doesn't have children, and she seems to be enjoying herself.

I'm sorry, I don't say this often, but your opinion is really stupid. Morals aren't universal. Your belief system is yours and only yours. Stating something like "working into your old age is wrong" as fact doesn't make it so.
Honestly, I have no clue why you would even feel that working into your 90's would be "immoral". Immoral? Really? There's literally no logic or sense to it.
What, people like Betty should be confined to a rocking chair in front of their tv set for the rest of their lives, even if they're healthy and still want to be active, just because you say so?
No.
As for sex.. puhleez. TONS OF OLD PEOPLE HAVE SEX. TONS! If you think it's rare then you're incredibly niave. Why do you think there's viagra commercials every 10 minutes on TV?

you're nave thinking that Viagra commercials are for 70 and above people, now that is stupid and ignorant. you are really stupid. this moral is universal because it's people spending time with other people who are in the same immediate family.

She obviously loves working so why not? It makes more sense to spend your life doing what you enjoy rather than stay home and be miserable. She always looks like she's having a ball when she's on talk shows. I know that I enjoy watching her.

If we're really going to get into this. "should have" is correct, not "should of." "Should have" is commonly abbreviated as "should've," which sounds like "should of," but that doesn't make "should of" correct.

not true. things change, words change and when something gets used enough it changes to a word and so has happened with should of. people became too lazy to use should have so then should of became correct grammar.
