[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand why you can destroy them, but cannot donate them, as either way, you don't have the children.  Regardless, though, that's your choice and I'm sorry you're upset.[/quote]

I would feel better knowing I got them at least a chance with an other family struggling with infertility[/quote]

Were you ever in this situation? Did you donate them?

If not, then you have no idea.[/quote]

DP but I was an IVF baby. When I found that out it took me forever to get the nerve to ask if my parents destroyed embryos. I had one sibling but always wanted a larger family and it would’ve destroyed me knowing my siblings (which very well could have been me) were killed simply because they weren’t picked. (And gratefully my parents only had one embryo each time). So PP - were you ever in *that* situation? If not then you have no idea. [/quote]

They are not your siblings.  They are a ball of cells in a lab.

I had to destroy one embryo and it genuinely didn't bother me because I don't think of embryos as people or babies.  Probably I don't think so because I went through a lot of embryos to get one kid.  Those weren't all people.[/quote]
