Weekend Pet Links

Yeah, make IVF and fertility treatment and medical help in general less affordable and accessible for everyone else. Oh, and the child, never mind that “Mommy doesn’t really want you.”

In fact her quote was “We were devastated to learn we were having twins.” Scrapbook that. I wonder which of the twins she considers “the extra burden one.”  

I nominate this woman for the “despicable human award.” Does that exist? At the very least I think she should be featured on Parents Behaving Badly.

She feels the doctor should have only implanted one egg, rather than two.  I’m sure she would have sued had the one egg not implanted and she ended up with none. She’s suing the doctor for the cost of raising the second child, including private school. Surely she signed a permission to treat form that included the risks of multiple births associated with IVF? At least she didn’t have sextuplets like the Gosselins or the Masche Family.

That’s the thing about parenting, you don’t get to order off a menu like at a restaurant. You don’t have ultimate control over how many children you get, or whether you can have any, or what gender they are or whether they are healthy. Neither does the doctor. 

I’m sure some people would sue God.
