With adoption, (unless you are child trafficker) you are responding to the needs of an already-born child whose natural family, by some mischance or malfeasance, is not there to care for her.
I repeat: adoption is responding as well as you can to the needs of an already-existing child born into an deprived situation which everybody acknowledges was sad, not optimal. It's set upo to meet the child's needs.
IVF in this case is the intentional concoction of a child for the express purpose of raising him fatherless. It is not responding to the needs of the child (as well as we can) but creating a child whose needs have already been definitively set aside.
Agreed. In this case, however, the child needs a father. Not only that, she keeps reminding the adoptive single mother of that fact.
Children deliberately conceived and “produced” for a couple such as is mentioned in this article, is disgusting.
