Got too mad reading this article to finish it. I very strongly oppose fertility treatment, for a few reasons. Not gonna start unless a discussion happens in comments, though.

In a different economy, I would probably feel differently about IVF in general...although the IVF doctors I have met did creep me out A LOT (they wanted my eggs even after I told them my myriad of genetic issues--which no, they can't clean out). But I think I would still be opposed to multiple implantations.

It just got to me to read how very extreme some of the measures parents take are. I have to wonder if IVF doctors sometimes prey on the intense emotional state of the parents for the sake of profit and inflated success rates.
