A legal suit because a couple undergoing IVF is having twins. They only wanted ONE, you guys, and it's not fair that they have to spend more money on two children instead of one. The people who did the IVF should have to pay for the entire cost of raising *their* child.
The selfishness and self-centeredness of this couple is astounding. I could see perhaps, feelings of sadness and disappointment when things don't go "your way." I really could, even with two healthy children. God understands that D and I struggle mightily some days, or some weeks, as the parents of two children on the autism spectrum. You can't understand the mixed feelings and emotions, some of which are decidedly not "Christian," until you go through a similar trial. So I have some sympathy for the idea that this woman and her husband are disappointed that things did not go as they had planned.
But not much sympathy.
How often have healthy parents conceived children with severe birth defects or other medical problems? Things happen. From my understanding, this couple must have been infertile and needed the medical science to get pregnant in the *first* place. Did they specify that only one embryo was to be implanted? In writing? Or are they just sour because of how things happened to work out once the implantation occurred?
Or are they just too "traumatized" from having to spend a few hundred dollars on a stroller and not thinking clearly yet?
