..widely criticized by medical professionals..

The article is low on details but it's quite possible she gave a chance to 4 fertilized eggs which were excess from In Vitro Fertilization and otherwise would have been disposed. Why is she being criticized?

Do 'pro choice' people only proclaim a 'brave choice' when it is for death?

I understand what you are saying but hear me out. She has 13 kids from ages 9 to 44 via five fathers. It doesn’t sound like a Father is in the picture now. Using your logic, would a homosexual couple using already fertilized eggs to complete a pregnancy also be a “brave choice?”. I’m not trying to bait you.. I just think it is a good question. Personally, the article doesn’t mention that the eggs would have been disposed of... I wonder if the eggs can be kept for many, many years?

I don’t criticize her for having the children. I do, however, question her motives. Taking a trip abroad for the procedure that is illegal in her home country and going through all that trouble just for wanting to give her young daughter a sibling? I think not.

First place I’d look is how are her finances? Does Germany give new mothers with several children monetary assistance, etc.

There was the very famous case of Octomom here. “She liked babies” What she liked was all the extra per-child welfare.

she went to Ukraine where anything goes, and used donated fertilized eggs

nothing was stated about them being frozen vs “made to order”
