Multiple births buts the mother and babies at risk and takes away health care dollars even though it is unlikely to be financially viable ]]> 2022-01-20 18:44:19 UTC https://padlet.com/hglenville/tqpfdo1c4icnj3w3/wish/2003589030 https://padlet.com/hglenville/tqpfdo1c4icnj3w3/wish/2003729258 Helps give people with fertility issues / not able to have babies naturally, the opportunity to have children

This gives the ability to look for chromosomal abnormalities (ie triploidy) that could cause death of the baby or health concerns for the mother. This would be helpful as it prevents health concerns or emotional damage that could come from losing a child in this way. However, the ability to pick and choose which child is born comes with a slippery slope. Where is the line drawn between which babies are suitable to be born? In a world where we are trying to bring more equality for disabled and disordered people, how would we know where we’ve crossed an ethical line in preventing these babies from being born?]]> 2022-01-20 20:05:03 UTC https://padlet.com/hglenville/tqpfdo1c4icnj3w3/wish/2003745092 https://padlet.com/hglenville/tqpfdo1c4icnj3w3/wish/2003749808 A single round of IVF can cost thousands of dollars (depending on the region and what is covered by a particular insurance plan). This can make IVF particularly inaccessible for many individuals. ]]> 2022-01-20 20:07:57 UTC https://padlet.com/hglenville/tqpfdo1c4icnj3w3/wish/2003749808 https://padlet.com/hglenville/tqpfdo1c4icnj3w3/wish/2003752690 It has been used for a long time and has had a good track record so overall, the process seems to be pretty safe and with technology improvements risks are continuously reduced for the parent and the child. ]]> 2022-01-20 20:09:45 UTC https://padlet.com/hglenville/tqpfdo1c4icnj3w3/wish/2003752690 https://padlet.com/hglenville/tqpfdo1c4icnj3w3/wish/2003753076 In society, it’s seen as the standard for a male and female couple to have a child. However, there are many cases where single females/ parents want to raise their own child alone, or homosexual couples want the same chance at carrying and raising a genetical child. IVF provides this opportunity, so in this case it’s providing the ability for these couples/single parents to have equal opportunity in an ethical way.]]> 2022-01-20 20:09:59 UTC https://padlet.com/hglenville/tqpfdo1c4icnj3w3/wish/2003753076 turnerduldhardt https://padlet.com/hglenville/tqpfdo1c4icnj3w3/wish/2007645217 For couples who have a higher chance of having a child with an abnormality or disability, IVF is an option to lower that chance. Embryos can be tested before they are implanted in the uterus, and this reduces the chance of the baby developing with a condition that either or both parents carry on a gene. ]]> 2022-01-23 23:32:54 UTC https://padlet.com/hglenville/tqpfdo1c4icnj3w3/wish/2007645217 https://padlet.com/hglenville/tqpfdo1c4icnj3w3/wish/2007764898 Like everyone else is saying, it is really good for couples that are unable to have children, or that could have children with a high chance of disability. Additionally, it opens up a broader spectrum. IVF can allow for poorer families to gain the opporutniity to give their eggs for scientific research, and to be compensated in return. This would allow for the couples to give birht to a child, while also gaining the funds to take care of the child. This was seen in the example in the 6.6 note.]]> 2022-01-24 01:46:02 UTC https://padlet.com/hglenville/tqpfdo1c4icnj3w3/wish/2007764898
