Often theres a reason why people cant have a bby. Sometimes you just wait too long. And yes it is their fault if they wait too long, poor planning on their part. Adopt, there are plenty of kids needing parents who want a child.

Sometimes it’s not what but how that is the problem.

This conflicts with the Hyde Amendment.

Most IVF babies are killed.

Because it will result in the deaths millions of surplus babies, who do not get to grow, unless the technique changes. And the surplus humans will be too great a temptation to monetize the babies, to turn the live fetuses into commodities to be bought, sold, and traded in part or in whole.

Not hard to see where this will lead.

More babies the better, by any means necessary. The times are getting desperate.

Other issues with age of the mother are birth defects and other health issues. And not often mentioned is paternal age. Not as powerful a factor but its definitely a significant issue.

I wonder how this maps to autism and ADHD rates, etc.

My version of a communist government would designate all colleges/grad schools as breeding facilities. Get those kids out before the parents are 30. Extended education and career starts are unacceptably delaying breeding.

Maybe if we did IVF without slaughtering the human embryos we didn’t like, pro-lifers and anyone with a shred of conscience wouldn’t have as much of a problem with it.

Then there would just be the throuple aspect of the husband-doctor-wife conception triad, and the total unnaturalness of it all. Why does anyone need to artificially make babies when there are so many already made in need of adoption, or at least assistance? (And there would be so many more if as a society we stopped aborting, buggering and contracepting and treating the biological clock like it’s been fact-checked by Snopes.)

It’s only natural to want a child of your own bloodline - I have no issue with making it more possible.

As we should. But beyond that, this is not a matter for Trump to wade into via executive order.

Huge misstep.

Equivalent to giving a stipend to moose limb families to pay for female circumcisions.

Trump needs to undo this pronto.

I don’t know how I come down on this, really. On the one hand IVF isn’t the normal process, but a life is created that could thrive in a family that really wanted it.

I guess the big problem with IVF is the number of fertilized eggs that have to be produced that don’t ‘make it’ in order to get that one successful attempt....

Regardless, he’s only doing what he promised and said he’d do.
