Thank you for your thoughtful reply to my comments. I do agree with you about the older folks having either their own babies or else adopting. It seems unfair that a child growing up has a parent in their 60’s and 70’s when still in school. Even my grandparents were a bit older than that when I was in school.
However, I do believe the last infant Rosie shared with her now gone partner, was one her partner gave birth to herself. When I read some background of Rosie’s, I recall that fact being stated.
Seems more suitable that the infant would go with the biological mother, don’t you? And obviously she is much younger too.
Still fame, money are contributing factors in these celebrities lives and I guess they have these children thinking they can provide well for them. It seems Rosie is trying to do this to the best of her ability, hence her leaving The View. Although there may well be some other reasons for the departure which include difficulties with the other hosts. Again, we will never know.

To break it down for you:
Here are some facts:
She used the book’s $3 million advance to establish her For All Kids foundation and promoted other charity projects, encouraging celebrities on her show to also take part.
and some more facts about her philanthropy which up to this date with her Kids Foundation the total is correct:Charitable work[edit]
Over her career, O’Donnell has developed a reputation for raising funds and her own philanthropy to charitable causes. In May 1996, Warner Books advanced O’Donnell $3 million to write a memoir.[85] She used the money to seed her For All Kids Foundation to help institute national standards for day care across the country.[85]

Since 1997, Rosie’s For All Kids Foundation, overseen by Elizabeth Birch, has awarded more than $22 million in Early Childhood Care and Education program grants to over 900 nonprofit organizations.[97] On October 30, 2006, she was honored by the New York Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children.[98] “It’s our privilege to be honoring and hosting Rosie,” said NYSPCC president David Stack in a statement.[98] “Her Rosie’s for All Kids Foundation has awarded more than $22 million in grants to over 1,400 child-related organizations, and that’s just one of her many impressive activities on behalf of children.”[98] In November 2006, Nightline aired a video report about the opening of The Children’s Plaza and Family Center in Renaissance Village, a FEMA trailer park in Louisiana.[99] This was an emergency response initiative of Rosie’s For All Kids Foundation with the help of many local nonprofit organizations and for-profit businesses, all efforts were to assist the families displaced by Hurricane Katrina.

San Francisco public relations firm Fineman Associates awarded top prize to Procter & Gamble’s designation of O’Donnell as “unkissable” in a promotion for Scope mouthwash on the 1997 annual list of the nation’s worst public relations blunders.[100] In response to the promotion, O’Donnell partnered with Warner–Lambert’s competitor Listerine who donated bottles of mouthwash to the studio audience and donated $1,000 to charity every time a hosted guest would kiss her in exchange for O’Donnell promoting their product.[3] On occasion, the guests would offer multiple kisses and People reported O’Donnell “smooched her way to more than $350,000.”[3]

In 2003, O’Donnell and Kelli O’Donnell collaborated with Artistic Director Lori Klinger to create Rosie’s Broadway Kids, dedicated to providing free instruction in music and dance to New York City public schools or students. Rosie’s Broadway Kids serves more than 4,500 teachers, students, and their family members at 21 schools.[101] Currently programs are in Harlem, Midtown West, Chelsea, Lower East Side, East Village, and Chinatown. All net profits from O’Donnell’s 2007 book Celebrity Detox are also being donated to Rosie’s Broadway Kids.[44]

In December 2006, at a one-night charity event on the Norwegian Pearl cruise ship, Elizabeth Birch, executive director for the Rosie’s For All Kids Foundation, confirmed that $50 million from O’Donnell’s five-year contract were donated in an irrevocable trust to charity.[102] She is also reported to have contributed several hundred thousand dollars for rehabilitation therapies for war veterans who have lost limbs in Iraq and Afghanistan wars. On The Tyra Banks Show,[103] Banks brought up to O’Donnell that people don’t realize that O’Donnell has given more than $100 million to charity.[104] In May 2007, O’Donnell and Pogo.com announced a joint-effort to raise money for Rosie’s All Kids Foundation.[105] EA, which owns Pogo.com, committed $30,000 and more money can be raised based on the amount of playing time people spend on certain games.[105] They also held a sweepstakes in which winners get to fly to New York and meet O’Donnell and attend a charity function as her guest.[105]

During the summer of 2007, O’Donnell was a guest on the multi-artist True Colors Tour, which traveled through 15 cities in the United States and Canada.[106] The tour, sponsored by the gay cable channel Logo, began on June 8, 2007. Hosted by comedian Margaret Cho and headlined by Cyndi Lauper, the tour also included Debbie Harry, Erasure, The Gossip, Rufus Wainwright, The Dresden Dolls, The MisShapes, Indigo Girls, The Cliks and other special guests. Profits from the tour helped to benefit the Human Rights Campaign as well as P-FLAG and The Matthew Shepard Foundation.[107] She appeared again on True Colors Tour 2008.

If anyone can say they don’t like her, then that’s fine with me but there is no arguing about her generosity in many areas of life to help those less fortunate and increase awareness about important issues.

It seems your interest iin commenting further is to discredit my statements about the actual total in millions of Rosie O’Donnell’s philanthropic endeavours. With my last post, there were facts about involvements of hers in fund raising that were not numerical figures but obviously were events which raised millions more than all the figures I provided. It seems to me that you are requiring accounting results which of course is an impossible task. Be it known that this woman has raised millions, didn’t have to spearhead various endeavours at all. So, please do not attack me personally with your “inaccurate, preposterous numbers” comment as I find it bullying and just plain nasty.
Obviously you are out to discredit Rosie’s efforts for some reason unknown to me.
Perhaps put your energies into attempting to raise even $1,000,000 yourself for a good cause. That may get rid of your need to somehow attack my kind and complimentary comments about a side of Rosie O’Donnell which others may not have been aware as she is most modest about her fundraising.
Enough said. Please refrain from making any more aggressive comments on this forum, it is not appropriate.
