Carrie Underwood has received backlash after making comments that suggest being older than 35 means you can’t have kids anymore.

In an interview with Redbook, Underwood said, “I’m 35, so we may have missed our chance to have a big family. We always talk about adoption and about doing it when our child or children are a little older. In the meantime, we’re lucky to be a part of organizations that help kids, because our focus right now in our lives is helping as many kids as possible.”

True; some people are happy that she’s been open about the subject.

Others, however, take issue with her implying that being older than 35 means you can no longer have children.

Tonight, Underwood will be performing during CMA Fest. The three-hour special will be hosted by Thomas Rhett and Kelsea Ballerini and will feature other performers, like Jason Aldean, Brothers Osborne, Dan + Shay, Brett Eldredge, Sam Hunt, Dustin Lynch, Midland, Old Dominion, Jake Owen, Thomas Rhett, Darius Rucker, Blake Shelton, and more.
