Adoptees are the product of an unplanned pregnancy vs IVF children which were produced in a petri dish to gratify the desires of one or two individuals. The one child's perception was excellent - they are a commodity.

Sorry, but you're full of very stinky used food on that one.

I know a few IVF parents and, amazingly, they love their children just like they were (gasp!!!) real, human children.

"Commodities" my ass. Get off your high horse.

” I know a few IVF parents and, amazingly, they love their children just like they were (gasp!!!) real, human children.”

Whether you want to admit it or not, we live in a society where a large number of people DO indeed regard children as a commodity, fashion accessory, etc. Look at gay adoption - I know several gay couples who have adopted, all for very selfish reasons. I also know many people who have stuggled with fertility issues & have not been accepting of the fact that that is their lot in life. Instead of adopting a child in need of a home, they want one that it THEIRS & they don’t care how they go about fulfilling that desire. Even if it means they have to play God. IVF is a very evil, evil thing that has opened to door to lots of badness in our world. If you don’t want to admit that, too bad.

I don't doubt this for a minute. However, how many fertilized eggs (i.e. human beings) were destroyed in the process of producing the children that were actually born? IVF is a selfish process to gratify the parents, not their offspring.
