Would my parents have destroyed me if… ?


Anyone who still seriously doubts that IVF turns children into commodities needs to take a look at this report on a Los Angeles clinic offering to screen IVF embryos for sex, hair and eye colour.

Ethicist Dr Marie Hillard warned:
“Life is being engendered to be destroyed, with only those deemed eugenically fit allowed to live. The implications are incredible for all of us."
