Seems to me it would be a lot easier to adopt unwanted children than all this other nonsense. Or am I off base.
With IVF you have a blood child that has your genes, they are your future.
It would be ethically and morally the right course of action, but regulations and red tape may make it more difficult.
I think the main reason IVF is a big appealing deal (and a reason no one wants to discuss) is precisely because it allows parents who have waited too long to have children, whose odds of having a Downs Syndrome child are higher, for example, to avoid the natural risks of getting a child with undesirable traits or conditions by being able to pick and choose between embryos.
And, this of course opens the door for people to use genetic testing of dozens of embryos to cull out short kids, blind kids, blue eyed kids, kids of the wrong shade, etc., and have “designer kids.”
