Well, 70 years is "an entire life" for many.

But "of age" would imply 20 or less years after death, which would be more reasonable.

But giving such weight to support of "children" may or may not be a valid criteria (some may argue it has no bearing on society's interests,) and it also presumes that the dead author left nothing else for such children's support.
