I agree. I wonder how many here sat and read the whole article. As the article states, there is a difference in deliberately creating a person to be deprived of his/her real parents and an orphan given up for adoption who, 9/10, wasn’t planned or who was and lost his/her parents to a tragedy or a crime. That’s what this donor industry does. It literally creates babies whose biological parents have decided they want nothing to do with them before they are even conceived, and they get paid to do so. These biological parents really have no idea where their child(ren) are going when they deposit their sperm or eggs into a donor bank. The children are then created in a lab, and how many “imperfect” children are disposed of, or how many “excess” are left on ice indefinitely?
It’s chilling! I admit, I hadn’t thought much about this, other than my own experience and subsequent rejection of the whole idea. Having friends who are adopted, I’ve listened to them express their own confused emotions of feeling ‘unwanted’ and other such feelings. I was just sick reading this article and the realization of what it surely must do to so many of these people.
