Yeah, it's basically a life sentence for everyone involved, even for pets or animals around the house, but hey, at least it gets you some ''cute and ''wacky'' content for the socials that will be definitely liked and shared around by the most performative people you know :hitlerserious:

They chose the most viable embryo and let you choose the sex (weight of male embryo in VERY early stage is slightly lower from Y chromosome being smaller). The remaining embryos are often used for science experiments or other things. The moral question is whether or not killing or using the embryos for Science is immoral or unethical, and the debate over when human life actually begins. The selection aspect is one of the things that makes IVF so sketchy— how do we know that one of the other 8 eggs wouldn’t have taken and maybe it would have been perfectly healthy without genetic malformation. I don’t want to get lost in the details here, but I don’t like IVF.

While I think you'd have to be a bit of a psycho to tell parents they should have killed their kid, I'm convinced that the people who try to berate others for choosing abortion in these situations simply have not been around very many people with genetic disabilities, and I don't just mean like for just a few minutes, or at work.

I know someone who's sister is schizophrenic (plus a bunch of other problems), and the doctors told her mom to abort the pregnancy, which she refused to do on religious grounds. Things were okay at first, but she quickly became a nightmare, and was even dangerous. Today she's in a group home drugged out of her mind (which doesn't sound like much of an existence), and my friend still has panic attacks caused by the stress 2 decades later. So obviously there will be positive cases, but these people are liars to act like the negative ones doesn't exist
AFAIK the problem is they have a really high failure rate. In many cases they plant 8 and none take.

The problem is this is a motte and bailey.

The motte is some couple that wants to get pregnant or some woman that got raped and now is carrying a halfbreed , or downs syndrome, or mother's health, etc.

The bailey is "we're killing babies for Baal yaaaay" - and IMO anyone who is involved in abortion and says something like that SHOULD just be taken at their word and charged with murder 1.
