Should this be done in EVERY case of IVF?

Of course not. Many infertile couples seek IVF as a means to bring children into the world,not as a means of sucking the taxpayers dry,or out of some perverse need to have something to cuddle and dress up like a doll,but because they REALLY love children and want to be parents.There should be guidelines for IVF,such as age limits,personal history (married,single,etc.),and income.Even my cat knows that if you don't have a job,or a home of your own,and six other kids without fathers,YOU DON'T HAVE ANY MORE.

Your cat is clearly smarter than some people.

Again, what you suggest is that some govenment agency decides who can and who cannot have children, right?

And then, even if the decision was well-made according to SOMEBODY’S standard, circumstances change. people lose jobs. Relationships fracture. people get sick or go insane. So you really couldn’t guarantee that your IVF babies would be raised well and financially supported anyway, could you?
