True, i miswrote. I meant frozen embryos.

[posterchild]

True, which is why I say ‘quite possible’ as the article is low on info.

Great trophies! I wonder, will she have them stuffed and place them on her mantel piece?

(Remember that only half of human embryos, OR LESS, are viable, so embryos are not people — they are potential people — for without chromosomal testing you can’t know whether they are aneuploid and thus could never become a baby. And as of today it is too risky to test frozen embryos)

So, you're saying that it's all right to destroy a petri dish full of embryos, thus killing the viable embryos contained therein, as long as there are also some non-viable embryos in the mix?

I guess that means that I could blow up a cancer ward, too - because most (though not all) of the ward patients weren't going to recover, anyway, right?

In your worldview, morality is a simple statistical problem, huh?

I have a feeling this woman has a mental illness.
Feel sad for the children to be raised by a single mother who purposely makes children without a father. So dysfunctional.

I was hoping she was doing it for an adult infertile daughter/son. Sad that isn’t the case.
